\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a MC-3.2 SMART CLOCK HD, Digital Audio & SD/HD Video Sync Master Clock Generator from MUTEC GmbH. Please keep this manual for future reference! General Function Description MC-3.2 SMART CLOCK HD is a unique, extremely high-flexible audio and video sync reference clock generator.
INTRODUCTION \\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Features Three independent reference clock generators in one box. Generation of SD bi-level video sync and HD tri-level video reference sync signals with different frames rates simultaneously. Audio and video signals coupled to one common AES11, Grade 1, basis clock. Generation of 7 Ultra low-jitter basis Word Clock rates up to 192.0kHz.

CONTROL ELEMENTS \\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> MC-3.2 SMART CLOCK HD Rear Panel 1 Refer to the »Technical Data« section in the APPENDIX for a full list of all available SD and HD video format and frame rate combinations. Refer to the »Generatable Word Clock Frequencies« and »Generatable AES/EBU and S/PDIF Frequencies« sections in the APPENDIX for a full list of all Word Clock, AES/EBU and S/PDIF clock rates that can be generated.
\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 MC-3.2 SMART CLOCK HD 1 x Power cable 1 x Manual 4 x Rubber feets 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 Since some manufacturers offer optimized cables for the transmission of digital S/PDIF and AES/EBU audio signals, it will be a good idea to ask your retailer for specific cables. 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.
\B E D I E N E L E M E N T E >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> GENERAL OPERATION Selecting Function Menus and setting Functions Operating the MC-3.2 SMART CLOCK HD is very simple! The device is fully operated using the 2 keys at the front panel. 1 Switching the MENU key toggles between different basic function menus. 2 Switching the SELECT key activtes individual functions within one function menu. 2. SELECT selects individual functions within one function area. 1.
O P E RAT I O N \\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> SD + HD VIDEO SETTINGS SD VIDEO This menu enables you to set the internal standard definition (SD) video sync reference generator to different standards. It is a multifunctional menu which means, the two LED rows indicate together the different possible settings. The adjusted video standard is transfered to both SD video sync outputs at the rear. The names of the LEDs in this menu: PAL: PAL SL: NTSC: – 0.
O P E RAT I O N \\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> HD VIDEO + HD FPS This menu enables you to set the internal HD tri-level (HD) video sync reference generator to different standards. It is a multifunctional menu which means, the two LED rows ‘HD VIDEO’ and ‘HD FPS’ indicate together the different possible settings. The selected video standard is transfered to both HD video sync outputs at the rear. The names of the LEDs in this menu: 720p: 1080i: 1080p: – 0.

HD FPS 720 p – 0.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> AUDIO CLOCK SETTINGS CLK BASIS Within this function menu you may select the required basis clock frequency for your studio set-up. This selection serves as the basic setting for all WCLK output pairs as well as the AES/EBU and S/PDIF outputs. There are 7 different basis clock rates adjustable by pressing the SELECT key for different times. The LEDs display the selected clock rate as follows: 32.0kHz 44.
ANHANG \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> WCLK multiplier 5 For the AES/EBU output pair are 3 multiply functions available: x 1, x 2, x 4 Due to the maximum possible AES/EBU clock frequency of 192.0kHz, the functions of these multipliers are dependent on the adjusted basis clock. Example 1 The basis clock runs at 32.0kHz, 44.1kHz or 48.0kHz: x 1: x 2: x 4: AES/EBU outputs run at 32.0kHz, 44.1kHz or 48.0kHz AES/EBU outputs run at 64.0kHz, 88.2kHz or 96.
