Installation
RS422, X–Y Mode, Multiple Performers
The X-Y Mode is for controlling more than two Performers at
the same time, and for operation through a modem.
If you are controlling multiple Performers, they must be
equipped with the internal cable which loops the OPTION
connector to the REMOTE control path (see page 2-39). One
Performer is cabled to the SCP panel, and the remaining
Performers are linked to the first using looping cables.
Connect a TNX–ICC cable from the SCP RS422 connector to a
Performer OPTION connector which has been internally
connected to the REMOTE control path (see above). The cable
length is sized according to your order. The maximum length
is 4,000 feet (1,200 meters).
Connect your own cables, with D connectors on their ends,
from the first Performer to additional units.
