Examples

• The TR1616 display will flash when an invalid BLU link connection is detected, such as

when a BLU link IN is connected to another BLU link IN.

• The TRANSMIT BANK dot on the #1 TR1616 in the example set up on page 12 would

not illuminate if there were no path connecting the #1 TR1616’s LOOP OUT to LOOP IN.

The signal flow diagrams below show how BLU link signals are redirected depending on the Snake

Enable switch position.
