L6 LINK
Powercab Plus devices include the Line 6 proprietary L6 LINK technology,
providing a simple, single-cable connection for mono/stereo audio and
remote control capability between a Line 6 Helix device and one or more
Powercab Plus systems� This allows you to store and recall Powercab
Plus parameters via your Helix device, globally or even per Helix preset!
For L6 LINK functionality, it is required that Helix device rmware
is updated to v2.80 (or later), and Powercab Plus system rmware
is updated to v2.00 (or later). For best results, always run the latest
available rmware version on all your Line 6 devices.
NOTE: A 110Ω type XLR cable should be used for all L6 LINK and
AES connections�
