Turning Slave mode on and off
1. While the FD-4 is stopped, press the SETUP key to enter
SETUP mode.
2. Turn the JOG dial to select [Slave Mode (?)] (“e” and “?”
flash alternately), then press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current slave mode appears on the display.
Pressing the EXECUTE/YES key turns off the flashing [?]
character, and the Slave mode indicator flashes.
With the initial setting, [oFF] flashes as shown below.
Setting the Slave type
The “Setting the Slave type” menu enables you to select the
type of external sync signal used when the FD-4 is set as a
slave to sync to an external device.
• Initial setting: VAri
• Option: VAri: The FD-4 synchronizes only to external MTC.
• SPdiF: The FD-4 locks to MTC, then synchronizes to incoming
S/ PDIF digital signals.
• FrEE: The FD-4 locks to MTC, then synchronizes to the internal
clock.
* You can set the parameter for each Program individually.
* The settings can be saved and loaded as part of the song data.
* The settings are maintained after you turn off the power to the unit.
* The Program is automatically checked before the operation.
* The sampling rate is automatically checked before the operation.
Setting the Slave type (external sync signal)
1. While the FD-4 is stopped, press the SETUP key to enter
SETUP mode.
2. Turn the JOG dial to select [Slave Type (?)] (“e” and “?”
flash alternately), then press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current Slave type appears on the display.
Pressing the EXECUTE/YES key turns off the flashing [?]
character, and the Slave type indicator flashes.
With the initial setting, [VAri] flashes as shown below.
3. Use the JOG dial to turn Slave mode on and off.
Rotating the JOG dial clockwise and counter-clockwise
alternates flashing [on] and [oFF].
Selecting [on] turns Slave mode on, and selecting [oFF]
turns Slave mode off.
4. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
If you select [oFF], “e” and “?” flash alternately.
If you select [on], “e” and “?” flash alternately and [SLAVE]
flashes as shown below.
This means that the FD-4 has not locked to the sync
signal.
When the FD-4 locks to the sync signal from the master
device, [SLAVE] lights up steadily.
After you set Slave mode to [on], you need to select the
Slave type (type of sync signal) described in the next
section.
To cancel the operation, or to restore the setting obtained prior to
the EXECUTE/YES key press, press the STOP button or the EXIT/
NO key. Each time you press one of these keys, the FD-4 returns to
the previous hierarchy level of the menu, and finally exits SETUP
mode and displays the previous Time Base.
3. Use the JOG dial to select the desired Slave type.
Rotating the JOG dial clockwise and counter-clockwise
will cause the [VAri], [SPdiF], and [FrEE] indicators to flash
in sequence.
