A master word clock generator is preferable for larger digital setups.

Word Clock In: Receives word clock (sample clock) from another digital device such as a digital video deck, digital recorder or digital mixer.

Word Clock Out: Sends word clock (sample clock) to another digital recorder. Word clock is always output, whether it is generated by the internal clock or passed through from the word clock input.

75On/Off: Termination for the word clock input can be switched on or off in the Sync Card menu of the PatchMix DSP application. Normally word clock termination should be left on. If you have problems with a weak word clock signal, try turning termi- nation off. See Word Clock Termination.

The diagram below shows the proper way to connect and terminate a serial word clock chain. Using a BNC “T” connector ensures that word clock is precisely in phase for both devices. The middle device has termination turned Off and the last device in the word clock chain has termination turned On.

This diagram shows the proper way to connect word clock if you don’t have a multi-output word clock generator. The last device in a Word Clock chain should have Termination ON.
