Cascade Aux Bus Assign
The Cascade Digital I/O card kit (CD8-CS) has two paired auxiliary buses:
AUX A and AUX B. You can assign these buses to any pair of the 02R’s
internal auxiliary buses – but not to the same pairs.
If a cascade card is not inserted in the 02R, this display is greyed-out.
ID
The ID value specifies the order in the cascade of this 02R. The first slave
unit is assigned 0 (zero). The cascade master is assigned the highest ID
value (maximum 3). You can select from 0 to 3 as the unit ID.
You can only set this item when a cascade card is inserted in the 02R and set
to IN. When the screen is greyed-out, the ID is automatically set to 0.
Cascade Input Attenuator
These control icons allow you to set the input level of each bus line that is
being input into the 02R. You can set the levels for the internal buses 1
through 8, the cascade auxiliary buses (AUX A and AUX B), the stereo bus,
and the solo bus.
You can only set this item when a cascade card is inserted in the 02R and set
to IN.
2TR-D2 to Stereo Bus
This option allows you to route the 2TR-D2 digital input connector to the
stereo bus. You also can set the attenuation level.
Custom Cascade
The cascade system was designed to be able to connect four 02R’s together,
but in fact you can actually add even more units if you want. The cascade
digital I/O cards were designed to compensate for the signal delay of
connecting up to four units together. If you add more units, you will have
to compensate for the signal delay with the DELAY display function. See
“Delay and Cascade” on page 34 of the User’s Guide for more details.
Note: The device plugged into the 2TR-D2 digital input connector must be
synchronized to the system wordclock to prevent dropout and/or other noise. You
cannot assign the 2TR-D2 to the stereo bus if the corresponding switch (2TR-D2)
has been selected with the CONTROL ROOM monitor switches. Select another
monitor source before you try to assign this signal to the stereo bus.
