MULTI-MACHINE CONNECTIONS

On the rear panel, you will find two BNC connectors, each with a terminator switch:

The AKAINET and SYNC IN/OUT connectors must both be connected as described in the
following sections to enable the multi-machine synchronisation function to be used.

Akainet (Ethernet) Connections

The AKAINET connectors on each DR16pro should be connected together to allow multi-
machine synchronisation messages to be passed from one machine to another. This should
be done using standard Ethernet BNC cables. These are chained between the AKNET BNC
connectors on each DR16pro using BNC ‘T’ connectors to link each cable where necessary.

If you are using an RE32 Remote Controller, this should also be connected to the AKAINET
bus as described in the RE32 manual.
