Professional Digital Audio Equipment –
The
CT-DA10 may be used as either a 1x10, 1x8, or 1x5 output distribution amplifier
(DA) in combination with a 2, 5 or 10 output DAR generator (limited to 10
outputs total). All outputs are re-clocked and locked to source. The DA outputs
fallback to a tone and voice message on Loss-of-source. A Station ID may be
programmed into the fallback signal for positive identification during setups.
Outputs are always active. Dual redundant power supply for reliability.
The CT-DA10 generates a valid AES
output on all outputs with or without a source or reference input. Without
an available input, the DA outputs generate a 1KHz tone and voice channel ID.
When connecting things up, source or no source, the outputs are live. and
verifiable. Apply a valid source and the unit will phase lock to it and
replicate it on the selected outputs with less than 100ns delay. The DAR
selected outputs will be phase locked to the reference audio, in phase with the
DA output signal.
Never be frustrated again by not
knowing where the problem is, the Channel Talker DA10 will generate a tone and voice message indicating that there is no
source material. A station ID message can be added to identify the source DA
unit so that the receiving party can conclusively verify the
source.
Channel Talker CT-DA10 Specifications:
10
AES BNC Outputs: Ten 48Khz
digitally re-clocked outputs. All digital serial outputs are greater than 1.0VP-P
into 75 Ohms BNC connectors.
Output
Selection: Front panel switch to select 1x5, 1x8, or 1x10 replicated outputs from AES
audio input. The remaining outputs are DAR reference phase locked to the source
with less than 100ns offset.
Fallback
Output: 1000Hz tone interrupted with a channel ID (1/2 sec). A Station ID (0 to
16 seconds) may be added to identify the DA unit.
Sync to House Color Black: The CT-DA10 will lock to house color black reference. When house black
is detected, the unit will convert all outputs to DAR reference.
Audio output Left and Right = 0.00 volts.
DAR/Color Black Input: Locks to
external AES DAR reference 48Khz data stream, Standard 48KHz AES audio signal, or standard house reference
color black analog video.
Channel
ID:
(no source)
Voice message overlay on all non DAR outputs for ease of identification.
Natural voice wav file. Unit is pre-programmed with generic message (Left says
"One", right says Two").
Station
ID:
(no source)
Voice station/unit ID overlay on all
non DAR
outputs. Supports up to 16 second message. Repeats at 16 second intervals. Default: No message.
USB: Front panel mini USB input for programming messages.
Stats
LEDS: Four status LEDS: Power supply 1, Power supply 2, Input Lock, and USB activity.
Input Power Supply: 9VDC to 14VDC (12VDC nominal) dual redundant supplies. Connector 2.1mm
X 5.5mm X 11mm (inside x outside x Length). Unit is compatible with automobile
battery voltage (13.2VDC).
Input
Current: 100ma Maximum.
Power Adapter: Two 100-220VAC to 9VDC @660ma green converters.
Only one supply is needed for operation. Optional 220VAC input.
Warranty:
90 days
to cover normal operation, defects in materials, and workmanship.

W X D X H: 207mm x 178mm x 43mm (8.15in x 7.0in x 1.7in). 1U high 1/2 Rack compatible.
Channel Talker Wave Saver: Voice
ID Download
Software (Optional):
Channel Talker Wave Saver: Voice overlay Channel ID and Station ID are wave files. The
Channel ID file is a 1/2 second (opt 1 sec per channel) message unique
to the channel.
The Station ID file can be any message from
0 to 16 seconds and will be played on all channels in 8 second intervals. Voice ID information is downloaded to non-volatile
FLASH
memory using CT-Wave. Both messages are stored at 8K samples/sec.
Change the message as often as needed. 10,000 write cycles typical.
Note: A pre
recorded message saved by the download software can be downloaded to the
unit using just Hyper-Terminal.
CT-Wave Saver Software Specifications:
Software
minimum requirement: Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2K or newer 333 MHZ (or faster) processor,
128MB
RAM, 25M Bytes of Disk space,
800x600 monitor or larger, and mouse.
Model CT-DA10:
10 outputs. Includes two power supplies.
Rack
Kit:
Half rack kit 1 U high. All you need to rack mount one or two units (side by
side). Includes blank
panel, mounting handles and assembly hardware.
