giz Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Yes, a powercab will act as an extra cab with another powercab provided you use the curly lead. One thing to beware though is if you get a short then the slave cab can get confused when it tries to reset, unplug the slave before removing the short prevents this I recall, or use separate short detectors. We use a smartbooster now so don't have the problem anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRman Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 With newer versions of the Power Cab (v1.65), there is a delay that can be set so that you can avoid that problem after a short circuit that giz described. What this means is that the Power Cab 'master', which is acting as the command station, can restart and the Power Cab 'slave' will wait a little longer before trying to restart and reconnect.The delay cannot be set in earlier versions (1.28 and earlier), If you have those, you will have to do as giz said; unplug the 'slave' unit until the 'master' Power Cab has restarted.
