MHUB AUDIO is a ‘stackable’ system meaning that it can be added to any MHUB PRO, MHUB PRO 2.0, MHUB U (video MHUB) or MHUB AUDIO (audio MHUB) system
manufactured after 2017. When you create a system comprised of a video MHUB and an audio MHUB then we refer to this as a V&A system. If you combine MHUB AUDIO
with another MHUB AUDIO then you will have an A&A system.
Master & slave devices
Stacking works by taking one or more MHUB systems and combining them together so that it presents itself to the user as one larger system. A stacked system requires that
a ‘Master’ MHUB is nominated as well as ‘Slave’ devices which the Master will control. All communication and the large majority of system configuration will be done on the
Master system only. Once the MHUB systems are setup in stack mode then management of any of the slave devices becomes locked to the user.
You can only create a stack with uControl
To create a stacked system you will need uControl. uControl will scan your network and will identify any MHUB that is present on it. If more than one MHUB is found then you
will be presented with additional options: 1) to setup and connect to any MHUB system in standalone mode or 2) to combine one or more MHUB systems in to a stack. If you
select option #2, then you will be asked to nominate your Master device first.
• If you are setting up a stack with a video MHUB and an audio MHUB (V&A) then the video MHUB will automatically be selected as the Master device.
• If you are setting up a stack with multiple MHUB AUDIO’s then you will be given the option to choose which device is the Master.
• You can not create a stack with more than one video MHUB included.
• You are limited to a maximum of 3 Slave devices.
• You can reorder the Slaves in your stack to match how your systems are physically setup in your rack.
TIP: Have a plan in place before you start
It is advisable to have a drawing or a plan in place before you start to connect your MHUB systems up. Outputs from MHUB can act as inputs for Slave MHUBs and both
can be switched to any input/output combination. This can get very confusing! Detail everything and label your cables and interconnects to make troubleshooting easier.
Modifying or deleting a stack after stack setup is complete
It is possible to modify any aspect of the stack setup from MHUB-OS and uControl. However, if you wish to add or remove a Slave device or would like to upgrade the Master
MHUB then you will have to reset all systems in the stack back to factory settings and restart the setup Stack process.
