Front Panel
The front panel has LEDs that indicate the status of the power supplies, synchronization activity, and the status of several other
functions. Each group is discussed in the following sections.
1. Power
The system has two power supplies for redundancy. A simple
monitoring circuit checks whether each supply is functioning
within allowable limits and displays their status on the PSU 1
and PSU 2 LEDs on the front panel. The information is also
sent over the fiber link to the remote end. The LEDs indicate
the following status:
Solid Both power supplies are functioning normally.
Flashing Remote power supply has failed.
Off Local power supply has failed.
2. Sync
Remote The unit is locked to sync coming from the local unit
over the fiber link.
Word The unit is locked to sync on the word clock sync input.
AES The unit is locked to sync on the AES sync input.
If the unit is locked to Word or AES sync, it is designated as the
local unit and sends digital sync to the remote unit over the fi-
ber link.
3. Status
TCC Indicates TCC data activity.
Loop Indicates that the TCC/Sync fiber loop is complete and
the time of flight has been calculated.
MADI IN Indicates that a MADI signal is present on the 75-W
BNC MADI In and also on the Fiber TX connector.
MADI OUT Indicates that a MADI signal is present on the 75-W
BNC MADI Out and also on the Fiber RX connector.
