RackPack 4

Link Cable Installation (Top View)

Two  modules  supporting  the  LINK  feature  (i.  e.  Transient  Designer  and  DynaMaxx)  can  be 
run as stereo pairs. In LINK mode, the master module controls the slave module and allows 
a coherent processing of stereo programs over both channels. Besides coherent stereo oper-
ations the LINK mode offers further interesting applications, please refer to the individual 
manuals of the modules for further details.

IMPORTANT: You have to specify the master or slave configuration of a module before you fit 
a module into the RackPack 4 frame. The module manuals explain how to configure a module 
for master or slave mode.

All modules supporting LINK mode have a 10-pin socket on the top of their circuit board. A flat 
ribbon cable with two 10-pin connectors is part of the module’s scope of delivery.

Plug one of the two multi-pin connectors of the ribbon cable into either one of the multi-pin 
sockets of the modules to be connected. Make sure that the connections are safe by plugging 
the connector completely into the socket.

IMPORTANT: Only pull or push the connector, never the cable! Otherwise you risk to damage 
the cable. Subsequent damages can affect one or more modules!
