Let’s assume your codec eet has an account on the Comrex Switchboard server, and both ends of your connecon
are properly registered with it in advance. Navigate to . This page contains the
informaon needed to connect to a device. Units that are in your Switchboard account on the same contact list will
automacally appear in this list with a gear icon next to it.
Select the remote in the list and select Connect at the boom right of the screen. Your unit will now connect to the
rackmount at the studio.
Once nished, select Disconnect at the boom of the screen.
Audio level meters for both the local and return (remote) audio are in the boom right of the display. Adjustments
can be made on the audio levels being sent to the studio and on your headphones using the knobs on the top of
the 2USB. To adjust, push the knob of the level you want to adjust in so that it extends out, make the adjustment
