Characteristics of the outputs
Electrical Outputs (AES3, S/PDIF)
The Digirator features two electrical outputs that are equipped
with a shared high quality transformer. Both outputs are earth-
free and resistant to externally applied Phantom Power.

The outputs feature interface carrier levels with fixed levels:
AES3 :
6.0 Vpp (open)
3.0 ±0.2 Vpp (into 110 Ω)
S/PDIF, AES3-id: 2.0 Vpp (open)
1.0 ±0.2 Vpp (into 75 Ω)
Do not use both outputs in parallel.
The concurrent use of both electrical out-
puts leads to reduced interface carrier lev-
els that can lead to malfunction.
AES3id
For generating an AES3id compatible
signal please use the supplied RCA to
BNC adapter. The output signals meet the
AES3-id standard and work well for S/PDIF
signals.
Optical output
The optical output may be used concurrently with one of the
electrical outputs. It can be configured either for „2 Channel“
or for „ADAT“ format.
