6. EM GUI orientation
If the E2 unit is cabled to an EX unit or a pair of daisy-chained EX units, the EX unit appears as a grayed-out box below the E2
unit in the Diagram area. In the grayed-out EX box a blue button allows you to add the EX to the system as a slave.
4. Drop the S3–4K in the GUI.
You will be presented the option to add as a new system, add as a master, or add as a slave. An S3–4K can be added as a
Master or Slave to an E2.
5. Add the S3–4K as a slave.
6. (Optional) At this point it is suggested that you select and name appropriately each unit so that you can identify it in your setup.
7. Click the blue add button to add the
fi
rst EX unit.
If the EX is daisy-chained to another EX unit, you must add the
fi
rst EX in the chain before the second EX in the chain is displayed,
then repeat step 7 to add the second EX in the chain.
8. Click the blue add button to add the second EX unit.
If the EX is daisy-chained to another EX unit, you must add the
fi
rst EX in the chain before the second EX in the chain is displayed,
then repeat step 7 to add the second EX in the chain.
How to Link an S3-4K Unit and an EX Unit with two VPU cards
To add up to 16 Single or two 4K Mixing Layers to a system, an S3-4K Unit can be linked to an EX Unit with two VPU cards. Each
S3–4K has a single Link card in slot 1, identi
fi
ed by a yellow stripe at the top. Each EX has two Link sockets. Make sure to use the
locking mechanism and then push each cable until it locks in place.
Connect the Link cables provided with each unit between the Link connectors as follows:
•
S3 VP ID 0, Link Card slot 1, Link 1 >> EX VP ID 1, Link 2
•
S3 VP ID 0, Link Card slot 1, Link 2 >> EX VP ID 1, Link 1
When an EX unit has VPU cards rather than a combination of Input and Output cards, and it is connected to
an S3–4K processor, the EX unit an no longer be daisy-chained to another EX unit; both Link connectors on
the EX unit must be connected to the S3–4K Master unit.
See image 6-34 for an example of the cabling between an S3-4K unit and an EX unit with two VPU cards.

fi
guration
1. Start the Event Master Toolset version 4.2 or higher.
2. Make sure that both the S3–4K and the EX units are discovered on the network and that they have different Unit IDs.
3. Drop the S3–4K in the GUI.
If the S3–4K unit is cabled to the EX unit, the EX unit appears as a grayed-out box below the S3–4K unit in the Diagram area. In
the grayed-out EX box a blue button allows you to add the EX to the system as a slave.
4. Click the blue add button to add the EX unit.
5. (Optional) At this point it is suggested that you select and name appropriately each unit so that you can identify it in your setup.
