(6) Word Clock Termination Switch
This pushbutton switch provides internal 75-ohm word clock input signal termination
when required. Word clock termination is active when the switch is engaged (depressed).
Realtime Rack’s termination switch should only be engaged when Realtime Rack is set to
sync to external word clock and it is the last device at the receiving end of a word clock
cable. For example, if Realtime Rack is the last “slave” unit at the end of a clock chain
(when Realtime Rack’s word clock out port is not used), termination should be active.

The 1394b ports are for development and manufacturing purposes only. The have no

FireWire ports to a host computer.
