MD704 MADI to AES/EBU Converter
Front Panel
Figure 3-25 MD704 Front Panel
Signal Strength LEDs: Each of the 28 channels has a four-segment LED that represents
the following signal levels: -42 dB, -18 dB, -6 dB (green), -.05 dB (red).
Trim Pot: A trim pot adjusts the analog output level of channels A1 and A2 between +12
and +26 dBu in 2-dB steps.
Sample Rate LEDs: These LEDs indicate the Sample Rate to which the converter is cur-
rently locked. Sample Rates are auto-sensed but can be manually selected on the DM714.
Supported Sample Rates are 96 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz and Custom Rates from
external sources.
Sample Rate Source LEDs: These LEDs indicate the format of the Sample Rate Source
to which the converter is currently locked. Sample Rate Source can be auto-sensed or man-
ually selected. If an external source is not detected, the MD704 mutes its outputs. If a man-
ually selected source is not present, the Sample Rate Source indicator blinks.
• AES: Sample Rate locked to AES Input.
• Word: Sample Rate locked to Word Clock Input.
• MADI: Sample Rate locked to MADI.
• Auto: Sample Rate Source has been auto-sensed.
These LEDs appear in the same order in which signals are tested for presence. This de-
tection procedure occurs when the converters are powered on. The Sample Rate (DM714
only) and Sample Rate Source can also be selected manually.
Manual Selection Buttons: The button below each Sample Rate LED row manually se-
lects the Sample Rate Source.
Power Switch: On/Off switch.
