DriveRack™ User Manual
The Network Function section of this manual will provide you with detailed information for
establishing and maintaining a communication network between the 480, 481 , 482 and 480R
DriveRacks™, and a PC, via the GUI interface by utilizing an RS-485 network standard proto-
col through a back bone system. Use this section to optimize communication performance
between networked DriveRacks™.
Network Overview
The following illustration shows the versatility of a DriveRack™ network system. Notice that
the DriveRack™ can be controlled by the GUI interface, 480R and the 480. This provides triple
redundancy unit protection because information is continually being sent to all three controllers
simultaneously. Also take note that the 480R can receive MIDI AFL cue information from select-
ed mixing consoles.
