The Master Station is powered from an external AC adaptor
rated at 36V DC and 1.9 amps.
Input to the adaptor is 90 to 264 volts 50/60Hz
The Master Station provides power to all Outstations via the
interconnecting 3 pin XLR cables.
The Master Station can be powered from a supply as low as
24 volts DC although the cable length to the Outstations
may need to be reduced as there are less volts available to
overcome losses in the interconnecting cables.

When two Master Stations are connected to the same wiring
universe for dual control of 16 channels, set the Master
Mode switch on one Master Station to Main and the other
to Slave.
The configuration settings stored in the Main Master Station
will be those used to run the Cue Lights.
These configuration settings will also be copied across to the
Slave Master Station so that either Master Station can then
run the show.
If only one Master Station is connected, set the mode switch
to the Main position.

An Expansion Port consisting of
connectors allows for the linking of multiple Master Stations
(see page 10) and also for connection of the PC Interface
unit
.
The cable is of the 6 core flat telephone type. Suitable
cables are supplied with the PC Interface and multiple
Master Station purchases.
These cables are intended to be short patch leads because
they are unscreened and untwisted, however, lengths up to
100m (300 ft) will work.

RJ12 cables with only 4 of the 6 pins wired can also be
used. (pins 1 & 6 not wired)
