The XL42 can be used within an Automute system. The standard 9-pin plug can control up to eight independent
mono channels, each of which can be addressed by the XL42.

on for the desired Automute address, that is, LEFT ASSIGN 2 would make the left-hand channel of the XL42 mute
on channel 2 of the Automute system.
Each channel may be assigned to more than one Automute channel by switching each of the required DIP

The XL42 Automute system is compatible with all MIDAS XL series consoles, hence the XL42 is an ideal expansion
to an XL series console when extra channels are required.
