To sync several MP systems together, so that one external trigger can start all the MP systems
simultaneously:
1. Connect all the MP systems grounds together.
2. Connect all the MP systems external trigger inputs together.
3. Place a switch between any MP system external trigger input and ground.
When the switch is pressed, all the MP systems that are connected together will be triggered
simultaneously.
