6105 master slave

Hi guys. I have two 6105 powerheads and was wondering how to run one as a master and the other one a slave.

Thanks guys!

Set one to external mode with Main power at 100% the other two knobs to off. Connect the two controllers with a cable, you will make all the settings on the cable not in external mode. By default they will be synchornized, if you want the slave pump to run the opposite pulse so it is in pulse speed when the other is in main speed, push the food timer button and hold for 2 seconds on the pump in external mode.

Yes, but a MIDI cable from Guitar Center will also work, or anyplace else you can find one.
