1. The card attached to the lower PCI slot number will act as Master, and the card attached to the higher PCI slot number will act as Slave.

2. Connect both cards� inner pins with the 6-Pin Cable. See (A) connection in the Figure above.

3. In a computer where two GV-2008 Cards are installed, only 8 channels are functional when the system is running. It may be that the position of Master card and Slave card is reversed, so the 6-Pin Cable is connected to the wrong pin assignment. To solve the problem, please try to connect both cards� outer pins with the cable. See (B) connection in the Figure above.
