Start CDJ.

Start SDJ.

From the SDJ system, browse to the \Requests\ folder on the CDJ
system and select it. By default this is C:\Concrete DJ\Requests\.
One configuration is to connect the CDJ, and one or more SDJ systems,
on a network. Another is using both computers in your SDJ rack case
system with a cross-over cable and another display monitor.
Don't forget to share the Requests folder on the machine running CDJ for
read/write. That way you can browse to \Requests on the CDJ system
from Setup on all the SDJ machines.
Once the link is established, every time a user selects a song on SDJ, a
file with their request is created in the \Requests folder on the CDJ
system. CDJ checks for these requests automatically. They pop-up in a
requests playlist on CDJ as they are entered on one or more SDJ systems.
Using Requests mode is almost like having your audience do your work
for you. It really helps new DJ's just getting started. It is also great for
experienced DJ's looking for something new to add to their performance.
