S-4000 Digital Snake Owner’s Manual 55
6—Using the S-4000 System
Connecting the S-4000R Remote Controller
Using the supplied RS-232C cable, connect the S-4000R’s REMOTE jack to the REMOTE jack on either
the S-4000S or S-4000H.
Power is supplied to the S-4000R through the REMOTE connection. The S-4000R’s POWER indicator
will light when receiving power.
If you require a longer cable than the one provided, you can use an off-the-shelf RS-232C cable or
fabricate your own. See Appendix B: Connector Information for an RS-232C pin out diagram.
The S-4000R can be connected to either the S-4000S or S-4000H. Connect it to whichever
device location is most convenient for you.
The REMOTE connections can be hot-swapped—that is, connections can be made when the
S-4000S and S-4000H units are powered on. This allows you to move the S-4000R from stage
to FOH without shutting down the system’s power first.
Multiple S-4000R units can be simultaneously connected to all S-4000S and S-4000H units in
the S-4000 System. See Chapter 7 for more information.
