FR-2
Field Memory Recorder (Chapter 4: Basic connections)
Analog audio outputs
The [ANALOG OUT] jacks (unbalanced RCA) output -10 dBV analog audio signals.
Digital audio input
<Note>:
When receiving a digital source which contains FS information, the FR-2 makes
recording according to the FS of the digital source regardless of the [FS (kHz)] switch
setting.
When recording a digital source which does not contain FS information, the FR-2 makes
recording according to the [FS (KHZ)] switch setting.
When receiving a digital source which does not contain FS information and making the
unit “input monitor” (record-standby), “
DIG IN
” is shown in inverse video on the display.
Digital audio output
The digital audio signals can be output from the [DIGITAL OUT] connector in the
IEC 60958 (AES/EBU) or IEC 60958 (S/P DIF) format.
You can select the digital output signal format (AES/EBU or S/P DIF) using the
"Digital Out Type" menu item on the "Setup" menu in the MENU mode (the default
is "AES/EBU").
A balanced XLR-3-32 type (pin 2 hot) connector is used.
<Note>:
The FR-2 does not accept digital signals at 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz.
<Note>:
The [DIGITAL OUT] connector does not support digital signals at 176.4 kHz and
192 kHz.
<Note>:
During recording of analog audio, the FR-2 does not receive a digital input
signal.
The FR-2 accepts digital signals conformed to IEC 60958 (AES/EBU) or IEC 60958
(S/P DIF) format via the [DIGITAL IN] connector (XLR-3-31, pin 2 hot). During
recording, the FR-2 automatically detects the format of the digital source.
When the FR-2 receives a digital signal from the [DIGITAL IN] connector, PLL (Phased-
locked loop) activates and the FR-2 locks to the sync signal in the digital input
source.
