Word Clock Setup
The VM200’s internal word clock generator supports a sampling fre-
quency of 44.1kHz, the audio standard for music CDs.
You may also synchronize the VM200 to an external word clock.
WORD IN/OUT Connectors
These BNC connectors receive/transmit the word clock. You can
connect a device that has a WORD IN/OUT connector, such as the
Fostex VR800 digital multitrack recorder, to these connectors.
If the VM200 is the last device in the word clock chain, set the word
clock termination switch to ON.
