connect 480 & 482 via db9 cable

djd8

Hi all,
We have 2 amp racks, one with a DR 480 and the other with a 482 and want to use the 480 as the master. We need to make up a 50' cable to network the 2 racks, one stage left and on right. I checked the forum and the manual and wasn't able to find the wiring diagram for this kind of cable. It takes 2 male db9 ends, correct? Can anyone steer us in the right direction? We already connect the 480 to a laptop at FOH via a 100' null modem cable we made.
Thanks,
Don

Thanks Gadget, I believe that answers my question. Sorry I didn't find that on my own in the forum. I bought a 50ft cat5 cable and will make up the DB-9 version tonight and test both. This weekend will be the first event where we'll be using the 480 & 482 together. 482 will handle the monitor mixes and the 480 the tops and subs. Awesome forum here!

Thanks... we try very hard to answer quickly and accurately...I use the 4800 for 4 bi-amp mixes myself.. it's AWESOME!
