7.1.3.1. Multi-FireSpy Synchronized Recorder
When a FireSpy model supports connecting it to another FireSpy and synchronize their external timing
modules, then the standalone Recorder supports controlling those synchronized FireSpy's as if it were
one big analyzer with many buses. This allows making bus recordings with as many as 9-buses
simultaneously in a single user interface.
The picture below shows where the synchronization cable needs to be connected for an FS3852 analyzer.
