Please note that with 16 dB of headroom, the Lynx L22’s analog outputs are capable
of delivering +20 dBu signal levels. It is important to verify that the equipment you
are driving is capable of handling these signal levels in order to prevent clipping or
possible damage
.

Digital Audio

The XLR connectors on the L22Sync Cable, labeled DIGITAL IN and DIGITAL OUT
are used for AES/EBU and S/P DIF digital audio connections. Connect AES/EBU
devices directly and select AES/EBU Digital Format in the Lynx L22 mixer application.
Connect to S/P DIF devices using the supplied XLR-to-RCA adapters. Select S/P DIF
Digital Format in the Lynx L22 mixer application.

Sync Input and Clock Output Connectors

Two BNC connectors on the L22Sync Cable, labeled SYNC IN and CLOCK OUT are
used to synchronize the Lynx L22 with external equipment. The connectors support
TTL signals and should be connected with 75-ohm coaxial cable. Connect the SYNC
IN connector to the clock output of an external device and select External as the Sample
Clock Source in the Lynx L22 mixer. Adjust the clock Reference to match the incoming
clock type.

CLOCK OUT is a word clock that tracks the sample rate of the Lynx L22. Connect this
output to the word clock input of an external device.

Header Connectors

The Header connectors labeled CLOCK IN and CLOCK OUT are used to synchronize
the Lynx L22 with equipment located inside your computer. For systems containing
multiple Lynx L22’s, these connectors are utilized to synchronize the sample clocks of
each card. The connectors support TTL level signals and should be connected using
the Lynx Internal Clock Cable, Lynx Universal Clock Cable or similar 75-ohm coaxial
cable.

Connect the CLOCK IN connector to the clock output of an internal device and select
Header as the clock source in the Lynx L22 mixer. Adjust the clock Reference to match
the incoming clock type.

The signal on the CLOCK OUT header is a word clock that tracks the sample rate of
the Lynx L22. Connect this output to the word clock input of an internal device or
another Lynx L22.
