Linking
Multiple Model E units are linked in a ring so they operate as one system. Two standard
optical audio cables (i.e., ADAT lightpipe or Toslink) are required to link two mixers.
Note that using the digital I/O prohibits linking because there is only one set of connectors.
NOTE: This is different from the way the Models D and D-1 are linked.
Set one Model E to be the master by setting its rear panel
NORM-SLAVE
switch to the
NORM
(up) position. Set all other linked units to be slaves by setting their rear panel
NORM-SLAVE
switches to the
SLAVE
(down) position.
Link units in a ring configuration as shown below. Note that all

con-
nectors are used to create the ring.
