[BC] XDS Programming

We switched over this past week...and are having no problems.  We only use
it for Rush.
We use relays to start local spots and to play local liners.  I'm using
Relay A.  I just set up the local spot on relay one and the local liners on
relay two.  I'm using pins 1 and 20, I believe, for the local spot relay and
pins 2 and 21 for the local liners relay.  I'm not using the ground at all.
It's working great.  From reading the manual, if you are carrying a second
program at the same time, you would need to use Relay B for the closures on
the second program.

Has anyone here fully switched over to the new XDS rig for Premiere yet?

  I was looking at the relay page last night; wondering why I couldn't
re-map the first three relays for a several programs (id- ID, Break, Liner,
for each program)
Put in the correct syntax for each program, receiver and relays should play
along well, right?

 the other way to do it seems to be scattering things across all 16 slots,
going back to a fistful of connections... which are going to be paralelled
on top of each other, anyway.

  And, are they using the GND as COM for all relays now...? Seems that
way... or are they commoning all the B pins..
