Cascade connections

PM1D system software V1.5 allows you to cascade-connect two systems. Any desired buses can be connected

between cascade-connected systems. This allows you to increase the number of input channels to a maximum

of two engines.

About cascade connections

Cascade connection is when the engines (DSP1D-EX

{DSP1D}) of two PM1D systems are connected to each

other to share buses. Unlike cascaded analog consoles,

in which the signals are sent uni-directionally, cascade

connection on the PM1D system allows bi-directional

audio output and communication.

When cascade connection is used, one system must be

designated as the “master” and the other system as the

“slave.” However, the cascade master and slave differ

only in the priority in which they are initially connected,

and in actuality are completely equivalent in status.

Cascade connection involves virtually none of the

restrictions that apply to Dual Console mode. There will

be no problem even if scenes or library content differs.

While there are no limitations on cascade-connecting a

Single Console mode system with a Dual Console mode

system, it is not possible to cascade-connect with either a

Standard mode system or a Mirror mode system. In such

cases you will have to set both PM1D systems to either

Standard mode or Mirror mode.

When using cascade connection, all consoles,

engines, and PM1D Manager software must be

using the identical system version. Before you make

cascade connections, please check the version of

each component.

CASCADE screen

In PM1D system software V1.5, a CASCADE screen has been added to the SYS/W.CLOCK function. In this screen you

can make settings for cascade connections.
