SHURE LINK NETWORKS
Shure Link Connections
A total of 16 Shure Link devices can be linked together and controlled from a single computer.
Each unit comes supplied with one 5-pin DIN cable for linking.

1. Assign each unit a Device ID (0 through 15) via the DIP switches on the rear panel (see
Shure Link Device ID
). UA888s can only be assigned IDs 0 through 3.
NOTE: All units must have unique Device ID’s. The software will not allow
adjustments to be made to a Device ID which has multiple Shure LInk devices,
because those units may be configured differently.
2. Using the supplied 5-pin DIN cable, connect the Shure Link OUT of the first unit (the one
connected directly to the computer) to the Shure Link IN of the second unit. Repeat this
connection for each unit to be networked. The last unit in the chain should be
connected from its Shure Link OUT to the Shure Link IN of the first unit.
This
creates the loop necessary for all of the networked units to communicate with the
computer.
NOTE: Although a standard MIDI cable can be used to link units, Shure Link is
not MIDI compatible.
Shure Link Options
Shure Link Device Menu
The
Device
menu displays the following information:
ÊË ÍÌ
DFR11EQ ver 5
DFR11EQ ver 5
DFR11EQ ver 5
Ê Device ID. This column lists all the Device ID’s
that are active in the network. The Device ID is
assigned through the DIP switches. See
Shure
Link Device ID.
This column also indicates when
there are multiple units.
Ë Unit Name. See
Naming a DFR11EQ.
Ì Scene. This column lists the name of the scene that
is active in the device and the status of that scene
if it has been modified. Once a modified scene has
been saved to disk, the modified status changes.
Í Configuration. This column lists the signal
processing modules active in that scene. The
modules are listed as follows:
DFR11EQ ver. 5
DFR11EQ ver. 4
DFR11EQ ver. 3
DP11EQ
UA888
If a unit is detected but cannot be identified,
the following message will appear:
DFR MEM ERR
NOTE: If there are multiple Shure Link Devices using the same Device ID, that
Device ID will appear grayed out in the menu. Those units will be inaccessible to
computer control. The software is designed this way to avoid problems which
may occur when multiple units on the same Device ID are performing different
functions. To access multiple units, please make sure that each unit has been
assigned a different Device ID.
