Linking
To link multiple Dugan-MY16 units to operate as one system, configure them in an op-
tical ring network. Two standard optical audio cables (i.e., ADAT lightpipe or Toslink)
are required to link two mixers.
To link multiple Dugan-MY16s and external Dugan automatic mixing controllers
(Models D-2, D-3, E, E-1):
1. Designate one Dugan-MY16 as master by setting its rear panel NORM-SLAVE switch
to the NORM (up) position.
2. Link other units in a ring configuration.
Each unit’s LINK IN and OUT connectors are used to create the ring.
3. Set all other linked units to be slaves by setting their rear panel NORM-SLAVE
switches to the SLAVE (down) position.
If external Dugan automatic mixing controllers are linked with one or more Dug-
an-MY16s, one of the Dugan-MY16s must be set to master.

NOTE: A single Dugan-MY16 must be set to master.
