EDIT: reworded, too wordy...    Can I use 1 trigger out to run all 3 of these? |

AFAIK the trigger output is just that, it triggers an input relay on your device which then turns the device on.
The question is I guess is can those devices be daisy chained to come on in sequence or are you expecting to take one trigger out to somehow connect up to three separate devices?

I know you can split the trigger out, seen plenty of people posting they have done it. But the PC1 must take some level of mAmps, I just want to make sure that all 3 of them together isn't over 100mA. I plan on wiring them in parallel. I have an email into AMX support, hopefully they will have the answer. I really only needed 1 PC1 and an outlet strip. But I wanted the rackmount and this was a decent deal. I want to trigger all 3 just to look cooler |

I daisy chain switch amps on (and off) that way there's not a sudden power demand compared to switching all 4 on at once. For stereo 2.1 music listening the trigger output from the XSP-1 switches on the XPA-100 which once powered up then switches on the right XPA-1L which then switches on the left XPA-1L. For HT, the trigger output from Zone 1 of the UMC-200 switches on the XSP-1 and the XPA-5.
Cheers
