OUT, and the other end to the third ADAT slave’s DIGITAL IN.
Its DIGITAL OUT then connects to the fourth ADAT slave’s
DIGITAL IN, and so on;
5. Connect one end of a fiber optic cable to the DIGITAL OUT of
the last ADAT in the chain, and connect the other end of the
cable to the AI-1’s “ADAT” optic DIGITAL IN;
6. Finally, connect one end of a fiber optic cable to the AI-1’s
“ADAT” optic DIGITAL OUT, and the other end to the optic
DIGITAL IN of the first ADAT in the system.
This last step creates a loop in the digital bus, and thus allows for
communication between all ADATs and the AI-1.

Note: In a multiple ADAT system, if power is turned off on one of
the ADATs in the middle of the chain, all ADATs following it
will no longer sync to the master ADAT, as the sync information
will not pass through a unit that is turned off.
2.1C Connecting the BRC
When using the BRC, the AI-1’s “ADAT” digital in and out connect
between the last ADAT and the first ADAT in the system. In order
for transfer of digital audio to be possible, the AI-1 requires
synchronization information from the BRC. Synchronization
requires a dual male, 9-pin D connector to connect the last ADAT in
the system to the AI-1. In addition, a BNC-type connector must be
used to connect the 48kHz word clock output of the AI-1 into the
