3–22 • Installation NK Series User Guide (1.0)
Panels can be linked together to expand the number of available buttons. Panels are linked if they have the same
address and a different device link address that is not 0 (zero). Linked panels behave exactly as if they were one
larger panel except that macros can not be appended or added across panels.
The NK-IPS is required to configure linked panels and also for changing individual component addresses.
Figure 3.39 Linked Panel Connection Example
Power may also be distributed evenly throughout an NK system by way of direct connections between phantom
powered connections (control panels, NK-SCP and NK-GPI) from a common power source (NK Series routers or
the NK-IPS), or by daisy chaining components. Daisy chaining components allows several phantom powered
components to be connected to the one router.
