8.2 Using the RJ-11 Connectors (SYNC IN and
SYNC OUT) to Perform Synchronous Operation
If you connect the I/O terminals for synchronous operation on the rear panel of multiple
GS200s, you can operate them in sync.
I/O Terminals for Synchronous Operation
There are two RJ-11 connectors, one for input and another for output.

* This pin is used for servicing the GS200. Do not use it.
Connecting the GS200s
Use a synchronous operation cable (sold separately; 758960; 6-wire) to connect two
GS200s. You can make synchronous operation possible by connecting the synchronous
operation output of a higher level GS200 to the synchronous operation input of a lower
level GS200.
Note
Do not use other commercially available cables. Only use the synchronous operation cable
described above to connect GS200s.
