Step 4 Wordclock Settings
In daisy chain EtherSound networks the device furthest upstream is the Primary Master device, and
is always the wordclock master for the EtherSound network. Thus the wordclock master for the
network does not need to be specified by the user. The wordclock settings for each device will depend
on if the device is Primary Master or Non-Primary Master.
Notes: In Fault Tolerant Ring topologies since there is no firstdevice, the wordclock master must be
specified by the user. Refer to Step 7) Making the System Redundant.
Wordclock Source and Sampling Frequency
Wordclock source and Sampling frequency settings differ depending on the device.
MY16-ES64 (M7CL) settings
Wordclock Source
The wordclock source setting depends on if the device is Primary Master or Non-Primary
Master.
Primary Master
Select INT(internal) or any non-EtherSound network wordclock source.
Non Primary Master
Select SLOT, (the slot containing the MY16-ES64 card) as the wordclock source.
In this example, since the MY16-ES64 (M7CL) is the Primary Master, it must supply
wordclock to the network. For our example, set the M7CLs wordclock source to INT
48kHz”.
