Using the KSP8 AES I/O Option (KAES8)
The AES I/O Option adds four stereo input/output pairs to your KSP8. This option requires that the software
revision level on your KSP8 be 1.7 or higher. The most current KSP8 software is provided on a SmartMedia card
included with this option. You can update your software (if necessary) with the KSP8 Boot Loader, as described in
the KSP8 User’s Guide.
To confirm that the installation of the AES I/O Option has been successful:
1. Press the config button.
2. Press the INSEL soft button. Turn the alpha wheel to display the available input selections. The
“Option AES” inputs, such as shown below, should be available for all the inputs.

If the Option AES inputs do not appear when you scroll through the input selections, the KSP8 is not
recognizing the option. In this case, you should confirm that the board is seated properly: turn off the
KSP8, remove the board, then reinsert it, making sure that it slides into both plastic rails and becomes
seated in the connector at the back of the opening.
As you may observe while scrolling through the input selections on the INSEL page, the Base AES pair is still
available (in addition to the Option AES inputs). We recommend, however, that you use only the Option AES
inputs and outputs when you have the option installed.
Important: For each desired AES output pair, you must have a valid AES input on the corresponding pair. For
example, to use AES out 3-4, you must have an AES input connected to 3-4 (regardless of clock source).
ClockSource
The ClockSource parameter on the Master page lets you select one of the following as master clock:
•
44.1 KHz Internal
•
48 KHz Internal
•
Base AES
•
Option AES*
•
Word Clock
*When Option AES is the clock source setting, you must connect AES input 1-2, since the AES clock is derived from
AES input 1-2.
