1Introduction
he 4410 module is an audio analogue to digital converter which may be fitted with
one or two stereo ADC sub-boards, each providing four balanced or unbalanced
digital outputs to AES3-1992.
he digital outputs can be configured to lock to one of three references, video,
wordclock or any valid balanced or unbalanced AES signal. wo rear connectors are
available depending on the choice of balanced or unbalanced digital I/O. he module
is designed to fit in the 1050 3U and 1051 1U Pro-Bel ICON modular product
rackframes.
Characteristics of the 4410 module are:
•one or two stereo ADCs per module
•four balanced or unblanced AES outputs per ADC
•full 20 bit conversion
•AES 11, video and wordclock reference inputs or free-run on internal crystal
oscillator
•digital peak level adjustable for EBU or SMP E standards
•32, 44.1 and 48 kHz sample rates
•compatible with COSMOS, Pro-Bel status monitoring

For module installation instructions please refer to the appropriate ICON rack frame
section of the manual
2.1Selecting a rear connector
here are two alternative rear connectors provided. he K4410.3B is used for
balanced signals, whilst the K4410.3U is used for unbalanced signals. Both occupy
30mm of rack width in the 1050 3U Icon rack frame.

3onfiguration
3.1Setting reference options
he 4410 digital audio encoder may be locked to one of three types of reference
signal, analogue video, wordclock or any valid AES 11 signal. When locked to video,
the line standard may be selected for 525 or 625 lines. In addition, the sample rate
may be selected as 32kHz, 44.1kHz and 48kHz. he selections are made using SW1
and SW2 on the front edge of the module.
SW2-4 takes precedence over SW1-4
Only one of the three possible references should be connected at any one time. In
the absence of a reference the module will free-run from an on-board crystal
oscillator.

3.2onfiguring the AES reference
Jumper block PL5 is provided to set the AES reference termination value and select
balanced or unbalanced operation.
3.3onfiguring Video/Wordclock
references
he analogue video reference input also doubles as an input for a wordclock
reference. Jumper PL7 is used to terminate this input with 75 W, however this
termination will need to be removed for bridging or looping purposes.

3.4Setting the sample rate
he sample rate may be selected as 32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz by using front edge
mounted switch SW2. he appropriate card edge sample rate LEDs will illuminate
(green) to confirm the selection.
3.5Setting Full Scale Digital Level
Full Scale Digital is the analogue audio level which corresponds to the largest
possible digital value after conversion. Sufficient gain adjustment is provided to
more than meet international recommendations. he adjustment range is +15dBu to
+24dBu = 0dB,FSD. Standard factory setup is +18dBu=0dB, FSD for Europe and
+24dBu=0dB, FSD for the US. See ‘Ordering information’ for the appropriate order
codes for the two setup options.

3.6Setting the reference oscillator
he free-run speed of the reference oscillator may be set with RV1 on the 4410
module.
Adjust RV1 as follows:
•set the card to operate from a video reference
•pull the reference from the module, and use it to trigger an oscilloscope
•display pin 74 of IC10, the large 208 pin EPF6106 chip on one channel of the
scope
•adjust RV1 so that the display locks relative to the video reference trigger

4Trouble shooting
There is no output signal
•ensure that the green power LED on the front of the card is lit
If not:
•check the resettable fuses protecting the card - do this by removing the power
to the card for about 30 seconds then restore the power
•check the PSU indicators to confirm that there is power to the frame
•check that the inputs are connected to the rear panel and valid signals are
present
Note: he card edge green power LED will only illuminate if all voltage rails
regulated on the module are present.
The output signal is corrupted
•check the quality of the input signal
•check that only one reference is present at the rear connector and that SW1 and
SW2 are selected correctly for the chosen reference
•check that the green audio PLL lock LED is lit (12 LOCK)
•if an analogue video reference is used check that the green video PLL lock LED
(13 LOCK) is lit
•check that the red loss of reference LED (Loss Of Input) is not lit
•if an AES 11 reference is used check that the red Invalid LED is not lit
•check that the appropriate termination has been set
•check that the appropriate line rate has been selected
•check that the appropriate sample rate has been selected
The output signal causes pops and clicks in downstream equipment
•check that the reference used has the correct phase and frequency as all other
digital audio equipment used in the system
Note: It is recommended to employ a common station video reference or a common
AES11 reference for all digital audio equipment if accurate phasing to station signals
is required throughout a facility. he 4410 should meet the timing requirements of
AES11 under these conditions.
