Supplemental Note
.
The VM-3100’s rear panel provides both coaxial and optical
digital inputs. Both of these inputs accept a stream of stereo
digital audio data.You can connect a digital device to the IN A
jack using a standard coaxial digital cable. The IN B jack
connects to an optical digital cable. Both types of cable can
be found at your local music retailer. We strongly
recommend you use high-quality cables to ensure accurate
transmission of digital signals between connected digital devices and
the VM-3100.
When two digital devices are connected, one or the other of the devices
must supply a common timing reference—called the “master clock”—
that both devices will use. This makes the synchronization between
digital devices extremely accurate. Generally, the device sending the
data will provide the master clock.
Before you can hear digital audio coming into the VM-3100, you must
first tell the VM-3100 which digital connection you’re using so that it
knows where to find the master clock. There are two ways to do this.
Method One
1. With the VM-3100 and the digital device powered down, connect the
device’s digital output to either of the VM-3100’s digital inputs.
2. Power on the digital device you’re connecting to the VM-3100.
3. Set the device to output a digital signal of 44.1kHz.
4. Turn on the VM-3100 and press SYSTEM.
5. Use the DOWN or UP page button to select “MasterClk.
6. Turn the VALUE dial to select either “DIN-A” for the coaxial input or
“DIN-B” for the optical input. The display flashes “Digital IN
Checking” for a few seconds and then “Digital IN Locked!”—this
indicates that the VM-3100 is successfully synchronized to the
device connected to its digital input.
