4. Select either add as a master or add as a slave.
Once the added S3–4K is done synchronizing with the system, the third (grayed-out) S3–4K will be available

6. (Optional) At this point it is suggested that you select and name appropriately each S3–4K so that you can

How to Link an S3-4K Unit and an EX Unit with Two VPU Cards
To add up to eight Single or four Mixing Layers to a system, an S3-4K Unit can be linked to an EX Unit with two
VPU cards. This adds two additional VPUs to the system. Each S3– 4K has a single Link card in slot 1,
identified by a yellow stripe at the top. Each EX has two Link sockets. Make sure to use the locking
mechanism and then push each cable until it locks in place.
Connect the Link cables provided with each unit between the Link connectors as follows:
• S3 VP ID 0, Link Card slot 1, Link 1 >> EX VP ID 1, Link 2 [1]
• S3 VP ID 0, Link Card slot 1, Link 2 >> EX VP ID 1, Link 1 [2]
See Image 6-56 for an example of the cabling between an S3-4K unit and an EX unit with two VPU cards.

When an EX unit has VPU cards rather than a combination of Input and Output cards, and it is
connected to an S3–4K processor, the EX unit an no longer be daisy-chained to another EX unit;
both Link connectors on the EX unit must be connected to the S3–4K Master unit.
How to Link an S3-4K Unit and an EX Unit with a Mixed I/O/VPU Configuration
To add up to four Single or two Mixing Layers to a system, an S3-4K Unit can be linked to an EX Unit with a
single VPU card. This adds another VPU to the system. The VPU can be in either slot 1 or slot 2 on the EX
unit, and the other slot may be empty or contain either an Event Master Input card or an Event Master Output
card. Each S3–4K has a single Link card in slot 1, identified by a yellow stripe at the top. Each EX has two Link
sockets. Make sure to use the locking mechanism and then push each cable until it locks in place.
Connect the Link cables provided with each unit between the Link connectors as follows:
• S3 VP ID 0, Link Card slot 1, Link 1 >> EX VP ID 1, Link 2 [1]
• S3 VP ID 0, Link Card slot 1, Link 2 >> EX VP ID 1, Link 1 [2]
See Image 6-57 for an example of the cabling between an S3-4K unit and an EX unit with two VPU cards.
