2.3 ADAT
1. Connect the ADAT adapter to the DB-50 ports on the FC726 rear panel.
2. Connect the ADAT optical cables to the ADAT rear panel and to the adapter’s
optical input and output.
3. Turn the MADI switch on the FC726 front panel to OFF (center position).
4. Set the ADAT adapter switch to the same setting used on the ADAT front panel.
If multiple slaved ADATs are connected, this switch should match the setting of
the first (master) ADAT. Always use the ADAT INT setting to perform SRC.
The switch on the ADAT adapter has two settings to tell the FC726 how to synchronize
to the ADAT optical device(s). Its setting depends on whether the connected ADAT
optical device slaves to the FC726 or runs on its own internal clock:
ADAT INT: The ADAT runs on its own internal clock (INT refers to internal).
ADAT DIG: The ADAT slaves to its optical (digital) inputs (DIG refers to digital).
Since the optical input comes from the FC726, this setting slaves the ADAT to
the FC726.
2.4 ProDigi
ProDigi (PD) is a 16-channel format with inputs and outputs on separate DB-50
connectors. The FC726 PD adapter has two DB-50 connectors, one for each eight-
channel bank (labeled 1–8 and 9–16). They may be connected to any bank on the FC726
with one restriction: the connector labeled 1–8 must be connected to a lower-numbered
bank than the 9–16 connector. This allows the channels to be routed in eight-channel
groups. Turn the MADI switch on the FC726 front panel to OFF (center position).
