I assume that when you say "gain" in this context you mean the "Input (L or R on my PC212+) Gain" as set and displayed on the PC itself.

That sets the level received from the physical XLR/TS Input(s) on the PC.

 

The L6 Link level is set from the PRESET as displayed on Helix or in HX Edit.

 

IIRC, when using a pair of PC112+ with L6 Link the Input Level of Cab 2 matches that of Cab 1 regardless of the individual (1/2) settings.

I could be wrong. Test by setting them differently in the PRESET.

This is a known bug(?) which will likely never be fixed. The Powercabs are apparently (and unfortunately), abandonware.

 

On my PC212+ the Input LEDs will react relative to the L6 Link Levels in the Preset (NOT the GAIN levels on the PC), but PC Edit (FRFR/FLAT) always shows the setting of Speaker 1 (Cab 1 with dual PC112s), which would seem to confirm the aforementioned "bug".

Whether it's actually a "bug" or an undocumented design decision is a question that L6 has steadfastly refused to address in any of the forums that I frequent.
