Setup a bridged configuration
If you already have a preset made for a non-bridged configuration, lets say for the CH2 for example, you
should load the preset, then choose to edit “CH1+2, copy CH2=>CH1”. The CH1 now is identical to CH2.
With this command you can also edit both channels at the same time. Otherwise, you can immediately
choose “CH1+2, copy CH1=>CH2” or “CH1+2, copy CH2=>CH1”, then edit both channels at once.
Remember that, in bridged mode, the 2 DSP channels should be identical to get the right results.

The application may be used to control many amplifiers, particularly in an installation environment and offers
a host of extremely useful programming and monitoring facilities.
Amplifiers are connected to a PC using an RS485 convertor and with each assigned a unique address,
connections can either be daisy-chained between amplifiers or connected in star configuration from an
RS485 hub which gives the additional facility of remote power switching
