CONNECTIONS

The operation of the Processor utilizing the TimeSync feature requires that the data input be selected first and then the

TimeSync input be selected. The TimeSync and the DATAinput selected must be from the same source. If the DATAand TimeSync

are from different sources the processor will, after a very short

period, go into a MUTEmode. The MUTEmode can be cleared by

pressing the TimeSync button again, reselecting a DATAinput,

and then optionally selecting the TimeSync if this input is connected to the same data source.

NOTE: The use of the TimeSync feature does eliminate the jitter

normally encountered in the normal decoding of the digital data

stream; however, the proprietary Krell DATA RECOVERYAND

JITTER RF_~ECTION MODULE reduces jitter to an almost

unmeasurable level. TimeSync provides an additional level of Jitter reduction.

NOTE: The use of the TimeSync button without having an actual

TimeSync input or a mismatched input( different input selected

than the input from which the TimeSync signal originates) will

cause the processor to go into MUTEmode. The TimeSync input select LEDwill flash when the mismatch condition or no input is present. The frequency indicator LEDwill still indicate the input frequency of the selected input.

NOTE: The TimeSync system is connected with an AT&TST type fiber optic cable.
