Chapter 23 Digital Input/Output & Optional Card Settings This section covers settings that apply to digital I/O and optional I/O cards.

B A C This page includes the following items. 1 WORDCLOCK SOURCE field Selects the wordclock source to which the AW2400 will synchronize. The condition of the received wordclock and synchronization status are also displayed here. B VARI field Provides fine adjustment of the internal clock in order to control the Vari-pitch function. C STEREO BUS CASCADE field Provides settings that allow an external device connected to the [DIGITAL STEREO IN] connector to cascade-connected to the AW2400 stereo bus. Select the Wordclock Source "Wordclock" refers to the clock signal that provides the basic timing for all digital audio signals. When transferring digital audio signals between the AW2400 and an external device such as a computer-based DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) or HDR (Hard-Disk Recorder) it is necessary to ensure that both devices are synchronized to the same wordclock signal. If the wordclock used by the two devices is not perfectly synchronized the digital audio cannot be accurately transferred and severe noise will often be the result. The normal procedure is to designate one device that will be the source of the wordclock signal for the entire system as the "wordclock master," or simply "clock master", and all devices that receive and synchronize to the wordclock master as "wordclock slaves". The AW2400 can be set to function either as the wordclock master or slave. 1 Call the DIO screen Setting page by either pressing the Work Navigate section [DIO] key as many times as necessary, or by pressing the [F1] key after pressing the [DIO] key. Wordclock settings are made in the WORDCLOCK SOURCE field. BA C D EF Digital Input/Output & Optional Card Settings 23 AW2400 Owner's Manual 223
