To elaborate a bit, some multi-FX units have their own loop that runs to your amp's effects loop. They'll let you select which effects run before your amp's preamp and which run in its loop. So the routing is

Guitar -> MFX in. (cable 1)

MFX up front effects

MFX->Send to amp input. (cable 2)

Amp send -> MFX return (cable 3)

MFX loop effects

MFX Output -> Amp FX return (cable 4)

amp needs serial loop (most likely loop) to be able to replace preamp with an mfx amp model. parallel loop will work if you are just using effects setups in your mfx chain. additional a/d and d/a can hurt tone a bit so mileage may vary. lots of people do it though.
