236 Chapter 14-Multiple DME32s About Multiple DME32s DME32s can be cascaded to expand the number of available input and output channels. Up to four DME32s can be cascaded, offering a maximum of 128 inputs and 128 outputs. DME32s can also be cascaded to provide additional DSP processing power, and signals can easily be distributed among cascaded DME32s by using the Cascade components. See "Cascade" on page 92 for more information. The following table shows how the number of inputs and outputs can be expanded by using multiple DME32s. Number of Units (DME32) 1 2 3 4 Input 32 64 96 128 I/O Output 32 64 96 128 Multiple-Unit System Notes • All DME32s must be turned on within 10 seconds. • When a scene is stored or recalled using the Run Mode Controller, the corresponding scene is stored or recalled on all cascaded DME32s. • When a configuration is recalled using the Run Mode Controller, the corresponding configuration is recalled on all cascaded DME32s. • For front panel operation, scenes should be stored or recalled, and configurations recalled on DME32 #1. • The password protection functions only need to be set on DME32 #1. • Only the MIDI ports on DME32 #1 can be used. • Only the PC Card slot on DME32 #1 can be used. • The GPI interfaces on all cascaded DME32s can be used, providing a maximum of 64 GPI inputs and 64 GPI outputs with four DME32s. • Wordclock settings only need to be made on DME32 #1. The other DME32s automat- ically receive their wordclocks via the cascade connections. DME32-Owner's Manual
