Word sync

Use this feature to lock your entire system to a single sync
signal (clock) by connecting this unit to the Esoteric D-03, G-
0, G-0s or similar device that outputs a sync signal or when
you want to use a precision external clock rather than the one
inside the P-03.

Each press of the WORD button turns the function on or off.

This unit is ready for the following clocks and switches itself
depending on an incoming signal:

44.1 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 192 kHz

It also accepts a Universal Clock frequency of 100 kHz.

The indicator flashes and the unit starts searching for an
external sync signal when “Word ON” is selected. The
indicator changes to a steady blue light when the unit detects
and locks to an external clock to indicate it is ready for
playback.

Switching word sync on and off may occasionally result in
noise from the D/A converter. If this is the case, turn off the
unit and lower the amplifier sound volume before switching
the function on or off.
