Linking
Up to eight Dugan units can be linked into a single automatic mixing system. The
audio I/O for each unit must be connected individually. Linking passes only control
information between Dugans, not audio.
One unit must be set to be the master and the others slaves:
1. Designate one unit as the master by setting the NORM–SLAVE switch on the back
panel to NORM (up).
2. Designate any other units as slaves by setting their NORM–SLAVE switches on the
back panel to SLAVE (down).
3. Use ADAT (Toslink) cables to link units in a ring network (see below).
Note that all LINK IN and OUT connectors are used to create the ring.
