CHAPTER 4: Operation
Clocking
The device offers several options for clocking.
• PTP (Precision Time Protocol) - IEEE1588-2008 / PTPv2
• Word Clock
• Video Reference - NTSC/PAL (black burst)
• MADI input
• internal clock generator (not PTP)
When PTP (network) is selected the device can either act as slave or as network
grandmaster. There is also a mechanism provided that allows to auto-negotiate the
PTP master/slave state between connected devices.

NOTE
If MONTONE.42 is synchronised to a different clock source than PTP it shall be
Grandmaster in order to provide synchronised streams. See also “PTP Settings”
