In the application shown below, a 6030 module is used as master AES reference for an
entire facility. One of the 6030 AES outputs is used as a silent AES signal (“digital audio
black”). Two more outputs are used to lock test signal generators that are used as a source
of test tones. A fourth AES output is used to lock to other digital audio equipment in the
facility. A configuration such as this ensures that all sources in the facility are locked to
video and are synchronous with respect to one another. This reduces the likelihood of
pops, clicks, or other undesirable artifacts when switching between sources.
