THE HARDWARE – CONTROLS AND CONNECTORS
Rear Panel
Figure 2 – Rear panel
All input and output connectors are mounted on the rear panel. Individual
connectors are clearly identified by the panel legend. Viewed from the rear from
left to right, the connectors are as follows:
Balanced Analogue Outputs 3 pin XLR male (2 off)
Unbalanced Analogue Outputs RCA phono (2 off)
Output Level Adjustment (trimmers)
Two 20-turn potentiometers set the full scale output levels for the Balanced
Outputs only. These are factory preset for full scale with input levels of +14dBu.
If necessary, adjust with a suitable trim tool or a small flat-bladed screwdriver.
Turn clockwise for increased gain. Take care to ensure the stereo outputs
remain in balance. The trim range is ±6dB.
AES1 & 2 Digital Inputs 3 pin XLR female (2 off)
Two AES/EBU inputs which may be used independently.
On the dCS 952, AES1 and AES2 may be used together as a Dual AES pair at
sample rates of 88.2 or 96kS/s.
SDIF-2 CH1, CH2 Data BNC (2 off)
These inputs are for SDIF-2 encoded PCM. They accept TTL level signals from
a 75Ω line.
SDIF-2 Clk In BNC
SDIF-2 Clk Out BNC
This pair take in and give out Word Clock. The functions are set by the menu.
Clk In is terminated and Clk Out is regenerated internally, so these lines can be
used for daisy chaining many units together.
