Using the Audio Converters

F:C Y GECAi U [ U Y

To connect your GEC?h Analog to Digital Audio Converter, as illustrated in the example in Figure 7, do the following1:

1.Connect an analog balanced stereo source (for example, a balanced audio tape player) to the ANALOG INPUT LEFT and RIGHT detachable terminal block connector connectors via shielded twisted pair cables.

2.Connect the four different digital output connectors to up to four acceptors, as follows:

￿Connect the AES-75￿BNC output connector to an AES-75￿acceptor (for example, a DAT-Recorder)

￿Connect the AES/EBU detachable terminal block output connector2 to an AES/EBU acceptor (for example, a DAT-Recorder)

￿Connect the S/PDIF RCA output connector to an S/PDIF acceptor (for example, a DAT-Recorder3)

￿Connect the OPTICAL output connector to an optical acceptor (for example, a DAT-Recorder3)

3.Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the adapter to the mains electricity (not shown in Figure 7).

4.Set the MODE SELECTOR dipswitches on the GEC?h Analog to Digital Audio Converter to determine the appropriate digital sampling frequency.

5.On the machine underside:

￿If required, set the switch to PROFESSIONAL or CONSUMER to determine the digital audio standard format

￿Set the conversion ratio on the underside of the unit4

1 Switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your 6420N. After connecting your 6420N, switch on its power and then switch on the power on each device

2 Using a shielded twisted pair cable (110￿)

3 A small-sized consumer DAT-Recorder

4 It is essential that you choose the correct conversion rate to prevent clipping and to maintain the S/N ratio within the spec limits. The selection of the conversion rate greatly depends on the type of audio played, and also on the audio equipment that is connected to the 6420N
