Here are some specs for the professional dCS 992 Master Clock:
AES/EBU and SDIF-2 Master Clock. Sample frequencies 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz
The dCS 992 Master Clock is a high stability reference generator designed for studio and live recording applications. The unit provides reference clocks to support systems sampling from 11.025kS/s to 192kS/s or DSD, via AES3 or SDIF-2 Word Clock formats. It offers a variety of “Superclock” options up to 256Fs and can generate all the commonly used sample rates from 11.025kS/s to 96kS/s, and output up to 10 different sample rates simultaneously phase locked together. In addition, the relative phase of each output may be adjusted by plus or minus 1 sample, in steps of 1/128th of a sample. With the dCS 992, synchronizing all the components of a multiple sample rate digital audio system becomes a simple and painless task. The unit can operate in Master mode from its own precision TCXOs, or can slave to an external source, such as GPS. It can “learn” the frequency of the external source, such that if this is interrupted for any reason, the unit carries on seamlessly at the learned frequency. If the external reference reappears, the unit reacquires lock in a very gradual and graceful manner, ensuring that any recording work is not interrupted. The dCS 992 is supplied with an easy to use Windows based remote control, but may also be operated from its front panel.
About 20 years ago I made the first website of dCS. Of course I still have a large amount of data on my PC. I’ll put the archive online when I have time. Without prizes because those were now seen dream prizes, ha ha. Here are the manual and brochure of the 992. 992Manual.pdf (1.1 MB) dCS992.pdf (158.5 KB)
And I discovered the 992 I got has some difference with the one in the manual, maybe a earlier model I guess? The one I have has 8 AES out, 6 BNC and no External Clock Sync.
Hi
Phil
I’ve emailed before to ask, saying it took too long to find it… Don’t know if sir has a way to find it?
Thank you sir for your reply.
Best regards
I recently found a copy of dCS Universal Windows Remote v1.31 on two floppy disks and transferred them to a hard disk.
The installation worked on Win10 (version 22H2, build 19045.3324) and the app asked for the COM port. I did not go any further than that.
If you (or anyone else) are still interested, please PM me, so I can send you a copy via email (sizes: Disk 1: 1.4MB, Disk 2: 96k).
Hi

Hello!
Martin
I also went on a trip for a week, came home and saw Mr. Mail, thanks to Mr. Software, I will test the connection with DCS tomorrow to see if it can be successfully connected.
Thank you for your help.

Hi, Phil
Very happy to hear that you have the Remote Software what I keep looking for for a long time. I also need this software to set up the DCS 992’s output. Would you please transfer the file to me by mail too? Thank!

I have put the files up for download here - that link will expire at the end of this month.
Please be aware that this application has not been updated in a number of years and is no longer developed nor has it been tested under any recent versions of Windows. It is provided “as-is”.
