SHURE LINK NETWORKS

Shure Link Connections

Up to 16 Shure Link devices can be linked together and controlled from a single computer. Each unit comes supplied with one 5-pin DIN cable for linking

1.Assign each unit a Device ID (0 through 15) via the DIP switches on the rear panel (see Shure Link Device ID, in the Hardware section of this manual).

NOTE: All units must have unique Device ID's. The software will not allow adjustments to be made to a Device ID which has multiple DP11EQ 's assigned to it.

2.Using the supplied 5-pin DIN cable, connect the Shure Link OUT of the first unit (the one connected directly to the computer) to the Shure Link IN of the next unit. Repeat this connection for each unit to be networked. The last unit in the chain should be connected from its Shure Link OUT to the Shure Link IN of the first unit. This creates the loop necessary for all of the networked units to communicate with the computer.

NOTE: Although a standard MIDI cable can be used to link units, Shure Link is not MIDI compatible.

Shure Link Options

Shure Link Device Menu

The Device menu displays the following information:

ÊDevice ID. This column lists all the Device ID's that are active in the network. The Device ID is assigned through the DIP switches. See Shure Link Device ID under Introduction. This column also indicates when there are multiple units.

￿Unit Name. See Naming a DP11EQ .

￿Scene. This column lists the name of the scene that is active in the device and the status of that scene if it has been modified. Once a modified scene has been saved to disk, the modified status changes.

￿Configuration. This column lists the signal processing modules active in that scene. The modules are listed in abbreviations as follows:

DP = Dynamics Processor PEQ = Parametric Equalizer GEQ = Graphic Equalizer DLY = Delay

3.X = DFR11EQ Version 3.X MEM ERR = Corrupted unit

NOTE: To access multiple units, please make sure that each unit has been assigned a different Device ID. If two or more units share the same Device ID, those units will be inaccessible to computer control. Make sure that each device in a Shure Link network has a different Device ID.
