System Operating Notes

03D

03D interface cards must be screwed securely in place. Do not leave the screws out after
installation as the cards will not be grounded correctly.

If a crackling noise can be heard, make sure not more than one device is set to internal
wordclock. One device should be set for internal wordclock (master) and all other
devices should be set to external wordclock (slave).

ADAT

To use the ADAT’s DIGITAL INPUT, press the DIGITAL IN button on the ADAT. Do not
press the DIGITAL I/O button on the BRC.

Set the DIGITAL I/O button on the BRC to OFF. This function is for direct ping-pong
between multiple ADATs. If this is turned ON while connected to an 03D, bus
assignments will produce unexpected results. Press the DIGITAL IN button on the
ADAT to use the DIGITAL INPUT.

To check the ADAT wordclock source, press the SET LOCATE and DIGITAL IN buttons
together. The display will show “int” for internal or “digi” for external.

The sampling rate of an ADAT can be set to either 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz. Use Fixed mode
for 48 kHz and Variable mode for 44.1 kHz (using the PITCH DOWN button, set to
–146 cents. At which point 44.1 appears on the display). The newer ADAT-XT has
dedicated switches for selecting these two sampling rates.

In a multiple ADAT system with no BRC, Control Slave ADATs must be powered up
before the Control Master ADAT, because when the Control Master ADAT is powered up
it checks how many Control Slave ADATs are connected, allocates them device numbers,
and automatically sets the system wordclock.

In an ADAT system with a BRC, the ADAT(s) must be powered up before the BRC,
because when the BRC is powered up it checks how many ADATs are connected, allocates
them device numbers, and automatically sets the system wordclock. The BRC works as
Control Master.

To generate timecode on a BRC, press the GEN SYNC button.

ADAT tapes can be duplicated when ADATs are connected together directly. Be aware
that a delay will be introduced if tapes are duplicated via the 03D.

To see the version number of an ADAT, press the SET LOCATE and FAST FWD buttons
together.

Both the ADAT and BRC can be initialized as follows. Initialization is recommended
when a BRC is behaving strangely, and the first time an ADAT is connected to a BRC. To
initialize, hold down the RECORD and PLAY transport buttons while turning on the
power.
