Before the BLU Link card may be used the switches that define master / client status and channel

assignments must be configured. These are accessed by removing the card from the console and

looking at the:

Configuring The BLU Link Card

The master/client switch determines the clock source for the BLU Link network.

Master/Client Switch

When any other device is set as the master, you will need to operate in client

mode (switch set OUT).

When operating in client mode, provision must be made to clock the console from the BLU link

network by connecting an external cable (supplied with the card), from the 9-pin D-connector

Wordclock Out socket on the BLU link card, to the BNC Wordclock In socket on the console. When

this cable is connected, the green LOCK LED will illuminate next to the console’s Wordclock In

socket. Failure to connect the sync cable in client mode will result in occasional audio clicks.
