Dugan Model E-2 User Guide
Linking
Up to eight Dugan units can be linked into a single automatic mixing system. The
audio I/O for each must be configured and connected individually. Linking passes
only control information between Dugans, not audio.
One unit must be set to be the master and the others slaves.
1. Designate one unit as the master by setting the NORM–SLAVE switch on the rear
panel to NORM (up).
2. Designate any other units as slaves by setting their NORM–SLAVE switches on the
rear panel to SLAVE (down).
3. Use ADAT (Toslink) cables to link units in a ring network (see above).
Note that all LINK IN and OUT connectors are used to create the ring.
