    3 isochrone ocx-v achieves the breakthrough clock stability by placing the quartz crystal in an isolated, temperature controlled oven. Constant temperature control of the crystal oscillator ad a proprietary jitter management module provide unprecedented sonic benefits. Isochrone ocx-v takes the digi...

    4 front panel: power switch source knob designates which input the ocx-v receives its timing reference from. The first five options correspond to physical inputs on the back of the unit. The final setting, oven, configures the ocx-v to use its internal, oven controlled crystal oscillator as timing r...

    5 the da mode will not work if the source knob is set to video or oven, as there is no audio reference to distribute. In this case the red led above sample rate knob will flash. Note that in the da mode, the ocx-v can work with non-standart sample rates as may occur in vari-speed mode; any sample ra...

    6 alternate sample rate selector for word clock outputs 7 and 8 word clock outputs 7 and 8 are capable of outputting frequencies different from the signal on wc 1-6. The first five settings of the switch choose frequencies that are multiples of the audio generator. The final setting, 256 wc, configu...

    8 rear panel: power connection this ies ac connection accepts an input of 95-245 vac 50/60 hz. As a result, the ocx-v automatically accommodates to the range of voltages found internationally, permitting use in any country. Word clock input 1 and 2 bnc connections used to accept word clock reference...

    10 ocx-v gearboxing mode in gearboxing mode, the ocx-v always generates an output clock at the sample rate set by the sample rate knob, regardless of the incoming reference frequency. This output clock is still phase-locked to the reference input, but the sample rates need not match. For example, yo...
