Boulderlink

4-1

Boulderlink is a means of interconnecting most of Boulder products

so that their microprocessors can talk to each other, pass important

information, and issue commands. Among the key features, Boulderlink

allows sequential initiation of power ampliers’ and other products.

Boulder power ampliers can send messages to Boulder preampliers

which are then shown on its display.

Connecting The Boulderlink

Turn off all Boulder products which are to be linked before connecting

Boulderlink cables and setting the Boulderlink ID and Master/Slave

switches.

Boulderlink cables in various lengths are available as an accessory

from you Boulder dealer. Two connectors are provided on the rear panel of

the 3050 and other Boulder products.

All the chassis are connected together in a daisy chain manner. Start

by connecting one chassis to another —then from that chassis to the next

until all are connected. The order does not matter.

A special interface may be obtained to enable Boulderlink to be used

with other control systems. Contact your Boulder dealer for more details.

Setting Boulderlink Switches

Every Boulderlink system must have one, and only one “MASTER”

component. Usually this is the preamplier. In the case of the 3050 Power

Amplier, one channel should be set to “MASTER” as long no preamplier

is connected by Boulderlink. Other Boulderlink products which do not have

a MASTER/SLAVE switch are not eligible to be “MASTER”.
