TASCAM DM-3200 User’s Manual 43
WARNING
More than one such word sync source can cause serious
problems, including possible damage to monitoring
equipment.
The DM-3200 can act as a word sync master or slave
(set up in software—see “Clock setting” on page 44).
The switch allows the
OUT to act as a THRU when
the DM-3200 is receiving word sync signals, as well
as enabling and disabling 75Ω termination on the
input.
TO METER Use the cable provided with the
optional meter bridge (MU-1000) to connect the
meter bridge to this connector of the DM-3200.
FOOT SW Connect a standard momentary foot (or
other) switch to this 1/4" jack. It can either be push-
to-make or push-to-break, as the polarity can be
changed in software.
For details of how to do this, as well as how to set up
the footswitch, see “SWITCH utility” on page 37.
USB This is used to connect the DM-3200 to a host
computer for bi-directional control. This is, the com-
puter can control the DM-3200—see the documenta-
tion supplied with the TASCAM utility software—
and the DM-3200 can be set up as a DAW controller,
controlling the DAW software running on the host
computer.
We strongly suggest that you use only the USB cable
supplied with the DM-3200 to make the USB con-
nection, and that this connection and disconnection
are made with the DAW software, or any other soft-
ware communicating with the DM-3200, not
running.
Note that no drivers are necessary when using the
DM-3200 with OS X or Windows XP.
Power input As always, check to make sure that
the voltage requirements marked on the unit match
your power supply. Use a properly grounded power
supply, and connect the DM-3200 to it using a power
cord which provides grounding facilities (such as the
one provided with the DM-3200).
