\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> INTRODUCTION Thank you very much for purchasing iD or iD dp, Redundant Multiple Audio Clock Processor, from MUTEC! About this Manual The whole manual is related to both versions in general, iD and iD dp. The individual differences are mentioned in the according sections and chapters. The structure of this manual refers to the normal process of installing id in a standard audio/video studio environment.
INTRODUCTION \\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Features Works as distributor and generator for Word Clock, Word Clock x 256, AES/EBU, AES/EBUid and S/PDIF. Based on iCLOCK’s lowest-jitter DDS technology. Clock accuracy aligned to AES11, Grade 1. Entirely jitter elimination and drop out compensation of incoming reference signals. Synchronizes and generates 36 Word Clock rates. Synchronizes and generates all AES/EBU and S/PDIF clock rates up to 192.0kHz.
\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> CONTROL ELEMENTS iD + iDdp Front Panel iD and iDdp front panels look equal 1 2 1 DISPLAY All parameter and function settings are controlled using the display and the four cursor buttons. 3 4 Refer to the OPERATIONS chapter for more information. 2 + 3 STATUS Indicators The three blue indicators show the lock status of the currently active clock source.
CONTROL ELEMENTS \\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Refer to the »Synchronizable and generatable Clock Rates« section in the APPENDIX for a full list of all Word Clock, AES/EBU and S/PDIF clock rates that can be generated. 5 WORD CLOCK OUT These outputs send Word Clock and Word Clock x 256 clock rates. Each of the output pairs can be assigned with a separate clock rate based on the incoming or internal generated basis clock rate.
\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> INSTALLATION Content of the Box The unit was packed carefully. Nevertheless we recommend to check the content directly after opening the package: 1 x iD / iDdp 1 x Power cable, 2 x power cables for iDdp 4 x Rubber feet 1 x Manual 1 x Registration card The condition of the packaging material and the device should be checked carefully additionally.
I N S TALLAT I O N \\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Wiring the AES/EBU and S/PDIF interfaces Especially when working with high AES/EBU clock rates well shielded clock lines are imperative to avoid increased radiation! Standard cables are normally useable for clock rates up to 50.0kHz. Special shielded cable material should be used for transfer of higher clock rates.
\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> OPERATION Display Menu Structure The entire menu structure is based on the logical flow of events when deploying the iD in a standard audio/video-studio environment. Therefore, starting with the menu main page, the menu pages have an ergonomically structured sequence and can thus be called successively by repeatedly pressing the up button. | I NPUT FQ REF1 STATUS GEN 44 .
O P E RAT I O N \\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Selecting Menu Pages and setting Functions For safety reasons, be sure to read the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS and INSTALLATION chapters before first powering-up! We also recommend reading the CONTROL ELEMENTS chapter for information on how to connect iD! ! The device is fully operated using the display and the four cursor buttons on the front panel.
O P E RAT I O N \\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Main Menu Page When the device is switched on, a boot period of approximately seven seconds will occur. During this period, the display will show two pages in succession. The first of them provides information on the current firmware version. ! All user-specific parameter settings are available furthermore when power is restored. i D - V1 .
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> MAIN1LOST If one of the messages OSCI FAIL, MAIN1LOST or MAIN2LOST is displayed, safe operation is not guaranteed! Contact the technician in charge immediately! ! (status message) MAIN 1 LOST indicates that the primary supply voltage or the primary internal power supply have failed.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> source inputs INPUT 1 and INPUT 2. Thus, the input clock signals can be routed freely to these two system inputs. The AES format, however, is an exception as balanced AES/EBU signals can be received by INPUT 3 only. When selecting clock sources, the system proceeds logically. For example, if the WCLK1 source (WCLK on INPUT 1) has been selected under REF1, it will not be available anymore for REF2 and REF3.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> As the synthesizer is capable of continuously supplying the adjusted iD output signals, even a manual clock source change on an input (by replugging the clock lines) is supported during operation! It is not important whether the change occurs, for example, from a Word Clock signal to an AES/EBU or S/PDIF signal.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> WORDCLK (setting) WORD CLOCK This setting means that the rate is output as set. SUPERCLK (setting) The SUPER CLOCK function is available for Word Clock rates of 44.1 or 48 kHz only. It is used for a rate adaptation required for Digidesign ProTools™ systems (not! ProTools HD™). Accordingly, the 44.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> WORDL Is the AES/EBU input feeded by a S/PDIF clock signal, a format and electrical conversion will be done automatically to supply a standard-compliant signal at the AES/EBU outputs. (function) WORD LENGTH This function allows for changing the word length stored in the channel status bits (byte 2, bits 3, 4 and 5) of the clear-frame signal of the selected AES/EBU output pair. The factory default is 24BITs.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Setting System Functions System parameters allow for setting functions that affect no specific output clock formats but all output signals or the global device functionality of iD. Three menu pages named GLOBAL 1/3 to GLOBAL 3/3 are provided by iD‘s standard version. Functions and settings on the GLOBAL 1/3 menu page: < | | <| < GLOBAL 1/3 V A R I S P EED + 0 .
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LOTIME (function) LOCK TIME The Lock Time function sets a period required by the synthesizer to update its clock rate from the previously selected source to a subsequently selected source. The factory default is 5 SECs.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Functions and settings on the GLOBAL 3/3 menu page: < | | <| < GLOBAL 3/3 TERM - I N1 / I N2 ON ON POWER - SUPPLY 1 - OK 2-N.A. GLOBAL 3 / 3 TERM IN1 / IN2 (function) TERMINATION - INPUT1 / INPUT2 This enables to change the internal 75ohms termination status of the two universal clock-source inputs INPUT1 and INPUT2.
\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> iD TECHNOLOGY Functional Principle iD‘s principle operation is different to conventional products. The customer, as a matter of priority, defines the clock rate multipliers and dividers and formates which are constantly available at the outputs – not depending on the clock rate of the incoming reference signal! Example Input Reference Change from 48.0k to 44.
C LO C K T E C H N O LO GY \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Sequence Synchronization Sequence Synchronization (SEQSYNC) represents the default setting when activating the REF1–3 menu page. It indicates the standard reference synchronization function of iD. The timing of this process is aligned to the parameter adjustments of the LONEREF (Lock Next Reference) and LOCKTIME (Lock Time) functions (see GLOBAL 2/4 page).
\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> iD EXTENSIONS iC-ALARM The optional iC-ALARM interface (ordering no. 8005-065) enables to transfer signals depending on three different critical operating conditions. Each of the potential-free alarm outputs is directly coupled to a floating changeover relay and is designed as an individual pin of the 15pins high-density D-Sub connector. Thus all three alarm signals can be transfered simultaneously.
