Configuring Multiple LynxONE’s
4.
Listen to the playback of any wave file and note which LynxONE card is generating
the audio signal. In this case, the card generating audio is adapter 1.
5.
Repeat steps 3 and 4, for “LynxONE 2 Analog Output”, “LynxONE 3 Analog
Output”, and so on until all LynxONE’s in your system have been identified.
The next step is to choose which LynxONE will act as a master. This choice is based on
preference only, but for ease of connection it makes sense to choose a LynxONE that is
on one end of the PCI slot array on your motherboard.
Cable Connections
Starting with the master LynxONE, insert the plug on one end of a Lynx Internal Clock
Cable into the CLOCK OUT header, labeled J1, until it clicks and locks into place.
This header is polarized to ensure the correct orientation of the cable plug. Insert the
plug on the free end of the cable into the CLOCK IN header, labeled J2, on the nearest
slave LynxONE. Connect each slave in a similar manner. Refer to the figure below.
Alternatively, if clock connections are made externally using the CLOCK IN and
CLOCK OUT connectors on the MIDI/Clock Cable, use BNC cables to make
connections between cards in the same sequence as described above.
Mixer Settings
With the clock connections in place, the sample clock settings of each LynxONE must
be adjusted using the LynxONE Mixer.
For the master LynxONE:
1.
Select the master LynxONE from the Mixer pull-down menu.
2.
Select a desired Sample Clock Source.
3.
Select a desired Sample Clock Reference.
For each slave LynxONE:
1.
Select the slave LynxONE from the Mixer pull-down menu.
2.
Set the Sample Clock Source to Header if internal clock connections are used or
External if external clock connections are used.
3.
Set the Sample Clock Reference to Word.
