Using the KSP8 ADAT–TDIF I/O Option (KADT8)
The ADAT–TDIF I/O Option adds the following to your KSP8:
•
eight digital inputs and outputs for the ADAT Optical Interface.
•
eight digital inputs and outputs for devices that use the TDIF format.
Once you’ve installed the option as described in the first part of this document, check to make sure that your
KSP8’s software is revision 1.5 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 ADAT–TDIF 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 for the
selected input. Among these should be the ADAT and TDIF inputs.
If the ADAT–TDIF 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.
You will now be able to interface with both ADAT and TDIF type devices. You can even set some of your inputs
(INSEL page) to hook up to an ADAT-type device while you set others for TDIF. The only limitation is that inputs
of one type cannot overlap those of the other type; for example, if you’ve selected ADAT 1 for an input then TDIF 1
will be unavailable (although TDIF 2–8 may still be available for your use). All 16 outputs, however, are always
live.
While the INSEL page offers parameters ADAT 1–ADAT 8 and TDIF 1–TDIF 8 when an ADAT–TDIF option is
detected, nothing changes on the INLVL page, since that page is only concerned with analog inputs.
Studio Configuration Files
For your convenience, two configuration files, ADAT
nn
.KSP and TDIF
nn
.KSP are provided on the included
SmartMedia card. Each file contains a subset of the base KSP8 studios with the appropriate input selections made,
as well as a Master table that sets the Clock Source parameter as necessary. To load these files, first insert the
SmartMedia card (gold side down) into the KSP8, then press the
MASTER
soft button, followed by
CARD
, then
Load
. You will now be able to select and load the configuration file that you would like. (Note that while the KSP8
will prompt you to save these objects into the 800s bank, you can place them into any bank of your choosing. See
the
KSP8 User’s Guide
for more information on loading and arranging objects.)
The files contain the following objects:
800 4SterIn>4SterFX
801 4MonoIn>4SterFX
