AllFrame C4dio Card Support
When a C4dio Digital I/O Card is installed in an AllFrame, the AllFrame can use external clocks in the form
of Word Clock or the clock embedded within a digital AES3 stream. Each C4dio card installed can be a
clock source. To support this feature, the AllFrame Device Window has an Audio Clock Source drop‑down
menu with options that correspond to the C4dio cards and their installed locations.
Two clock options are available per C4dio card installed: Word and AES. In the drop‑down menu the
options are displayed in a list with the C4dio card’s installed location (by letter, A‑F) in the F6 hardware as
seen below.

Choose the card and clock type from the list and then confirm the change in the dialog box that opens
once a selection has been made. The network will lock to the external clock. If the external clock is not
present, or fails while being used, the network switches automatically to its internal clock.
