Hello everyone.
I've searched the chat but haven't found an answer.
How do I connect or configure the Expert 440 Pro Dual so that the companion unit turns on when I turn on the master unit? Is the RCA connection sufficient? Do I need to configure any parameters for this?
I've also read on ChatGpt that you can connect the units to each other via RJ45 and this way you can enable the companion unit to turn on when the master unit turns on. Is this possible? Is it possible to connect the two units via RCA and RJ45 at the same time?
Thank you for your attention.
Carles.

This is the normal operating mode, no special configuration is required.

As Daniel pointed out above, it is standard once the slave and master unit is connected, you turn on master, the slave is automatically connected, no other setup needed.
For Expert Pro series, you can connect the slave either via RCA-RCA or RCA-XLR, this can be configured using the web configurator. There is no master slave connection using RJ45, don't believe in everything ChatGPT tells you, AI is AI, it does not have very good judgement on what is right and what is wrong info on the internet.

Yep. And because AI learns from everything that's being discussed on the internet, the more we talk about the things it gets wrong, the more it thinks that it must be right, because it's the most common thread.

You can connect the two units via a 3,5 mm trigger cable. Some say it makes the companion cooler on stand by.
