DA824—Owner’s Manual
AES/EBU Connection with Splitter Cable

This example shows how both an AD824 and DA824 can be connected to a digital

audio device with a single AES/EBU interface by using MY8-AE I/O cards and a custom

AES/EBU splitter cable. Pin wiring details for the AES/EBU interface are supplied with

each MY8-AE I/O card. The digital audio device is the wordclock master, with the

AD824 receiving its wordclock via a BNC connection, the DA824, via its slot input.

Dual ADAT Connection

This example shows how both an AD824 and DA824 can be connected to a digital

audio device with standard ADAT I/O by using MY8-AT I/O cards and standard ADAT

connecting cables. The digital audio device is the wordclock master, with the AD824

receiving its wordclock via a BNC connection, the DA824, via its slot input.
