4.18 External Control (Slave Mode)
When the FIREstation is set to EXT, Word Clock is determined or set
by an external device. The three external controllers are BNC, mLAN,
and ADAT.
4.19 BNC
The FIREstation can be synced to another digital device by using the
BNC input. The BNC output could also be used to control other devices
by Word Clock. For example the DigiMAX and DigiMAX LT (preamps
made by Presonus) use BNC outputs to send Word Clock to other
devices for sample accurate recording.
4.20 mLAN
mLAN would be the most common clock mode for the FIREstation. This
allows the computer to be the master clock. Word Clock is then
transferred to external devices via FireWire or BNC. The sampling rate
would be set in the mLAN control panel. Currently, mLAN protocol uses
two sampling rates: 44.1kHz and 48kHz.
NOTE: All other clock modes allow the use of the 32kHz sampling rate,
even though mLAN does not.
