150 DLMREC(1)
Specify the digital input source used by the DAT-Link. The input_source argument may be
i
AES, RCA, Fiber or Live. This argument may be abbreviated to a single letter. If this option
s not supplied, or the Live option is setting is used, then the three possible input sources will
–
be scanned for an active input.
I Interleave samples from each DAT-Link as they are acquired. Normally, samples are inter-
r
leaved on a block-by-block basis. Note that this option adds additional CPU load to the
ecording process, reducing the maximum throughput.
–f format
Specify format of digital audio data in file. The following formats are currently recognized:
traw In this format, sampled data is stored as consecutive packed binary data with mos
significant byte first. This is the default format.
sswap The byte-ordering in this format is the reverse of the raw format. Note that thi
format increases the CPU overhead of dlmrec.
FILES
/dev/datlink∗ DAT-Link devices.

NOTES
DAT-Link User’s Manual.
Synchronization of multiple DAT-Link’s is only possible with DAT-Link+ revision 1.6 or later.
-
r
Multiple DAT-Links can quickly use up all available SCSI bandwidth, eventually causing a data over
un which terminates dlmrec. Using a separate host adapter for the disk on which file resides from that
I
used to connect to the DAT-Links will allow greater throughput.
f multiple DAT-Link’s are wired together using an external sync cable or external clock generator
d
(EXTCLK), then recording will hang if less than the total number of devices is specified, unless the
lmkrdy(1) program is used to force the unused units to signal that they are ready.
