Elk DBH with 9 (?) devices?

Ok, so the docs on the DBH say:

- Provides up to Nine (9) Data Bus Connections (in Features)
- To connect more than 9 data bus runs..." (Install step 6)

However, one typically puts the terminating resistor plug into the first unused jack.

So the question is this: If one wants to hook up exactly 9 devices to the DBH (2 XIN, 1 XOVR, 4 KPAS, 1 KPB and 1 XSP), do you simply hook each up to a jack and put the terminating resistor on the device in Jack 9?

The instructions don't appear to cover this case.

Trying to avoid a 2nd DBH for just one device.

Thanks

You are right. The instructions do not cover this. With 9 devices you will not use the plug-in jumper at the DBH. I believe you just use the internal termination of the last device when using 9 devices. So devices 1 - 8 will have no on-board terminating jumpers installed, and device 9 will have its own built-in terminating jumper installed.
