g
ANALOG IN L/R (UNBALANCED) connectors
These RCA pin jacks are analog unbalanced inputs (L/R)
The rated input level is −10dBV.
h
ANALOG IN L/R (BALANCED) connectors
These XLR connectors are balanced analog inputs (L/R)
The rated input level is +4dBu. (1: GND, 2: HOT, 3: COLD)
j
DIGITAL IN (S/PDIF) connector
This connector is an unbalanced input for digital audio in
IEC60958-3(S/PDIF) and AES3-2003/IEC60958-4 (AES/EBU)
formats.
Sampling frequencies of 88.2 kHz and 96 kHz are trans-
mitted at double speed, and 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz are at
quadruple speed.
This unit is equipped with a sampling rate converter which
supports 32 kHz to 192 kHz.
k

format.
Sampling frequencies of 88.2 kHz and 96 kHz are trans-
mitted at double speed, and 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz are at
quadruple speed.
This unit is equipped with a sampling rate converter which
supports 32 kHz to 192 kHz.
l
REMOTE connector
Connect a TASCAM RC-HS20PD remote control (sold
separately) here.
NOTE
A protective cover is attached to this connector when
shipped from the factory. Remove the cover to use the
connector.
CAUTION
This is not an Ethernet connector (LAN, etc.). Never connect
this to a network using an Ethernet cable.
Doing so could damage this unit or equipment in the
network.
;
RS-232C connector
This is a 9-pin D-sub connector for RS-232C serial control.
Connect an external controller, for example, here.
NOTE
It cannot be used at the same time as the
RS-422
connector.
(See “RS–232C page” on page 85.)
z
PARALLEL connector
This is a 25-pin D-sub connector for parallel control.
Connect a TASCAM RC-SS20 or another external controller
here.
x
AC IN connector
Connect the included power cord here.
c
ANALOG OUT L/R (UNBALANCED) connectors
These RCA pin jacks are analog unbalanced outputs (L/R).
Their rated output level is −10 dBV.
v
ANALOG OUT L/R (BALANCED) connectors
These XLR connectors are balanced analog outputs (L/R).
Their rated output level is +6 dBu when Digital Ref. Level is
set to −9dBFs and +4dBu in other cases. (1: GND, 2: HOT, 3:
COLD)
b
DIGITAL OUT (S/PDIF) connector
This connector is an unbalanced output for digital audio in
IEC60958-3(S/PDIF) format.
Sampling frequencies of 88.2 kHz and 96 kHz are trans-
mitted at double speed, and 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz are at
quadruple speed.
n
DIGITAL OUT (AES/EBU) connectors
This connector is an XLR balanced output for digital audio in
AES3-2003/IEC60958-4 (AES/EBU) format.
Sampling frequencies of 88.2 kHz and 96 kHz are trans-
mitted at double speed, and 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz are at
quadruple speed.
m
RS-422 connector (attached to optional SY-2 board)
This is a 9-pin D-sub connector for RS-422 serial control.
Connect an external controller, for example, here.
NOTE
This cannot be used at the same time as the
RS-232C
connector. (See “RS–422 page” on page 86.)
,
TIME CODE IN/OUT connectors (attached to optional
SY-2 board)
These BNC connectors are for SMPTE timecode input and
output.
.
WORD/VIDEO IN connector
This BNC connector is for input of word clock and video
reference signals. Use this to input a word clock signal
(44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz or 192 kHz)
or a video reference signal (NTSC/PAL black burst or HDTV
Tri-Level).
Use the switch to set whether or not to terminate with 75Ω.
