Link Inputs and Outputs
All link inputs and outputs are electronically balanced. Trouble free linking of
any number of Faderbox frames using long cables and/or different power sup-
ply units for the frames is possible. The pin assignments of the link connectors
can be found on pages 19 and 20. Common 8-core audio multicores with 25-pin
d-subs connectors are used for the audio link. The additional 9-pin d-sub con-
nectors connect the control busses of solo and PFL and unlock the link inputs
of a master frame automatically. Common computer cables with 9-pin male d-
sub connectors can be used for theses connections. To enable the link it is only
necessary to connect the link audio input and output and the 9-pin link control
input and output of the frames.
