Switching between Sender units in Unicast mode
When multiple Sender and Receiver units are used in
unicast
mode, the DVI KVM over
IP with Local DVI Output behaves as a switcher. In
unicast
mode, a
Sender unit can
communicate with only one Receiver unit at a time.
In the example below, we will switch Receiver unit R1 to receive the DVI source on Sender
unit S1.
Figure 2.2 - Unicast mode: Receiver unit R1 is connected to Sender unit S2.
1. Access the Web interface for Receiver unit R1.
2. Click the
Network
tab and change the video channel to 5. Refer to
3. Click the
Save
button.
4. The following message will be displayed, at the top of the page, indicating that the
casting mode has been applied to the Sender or Receiver unit.
5.
Receiver unit R1 is now receiving the DVI source on Sender unit S1, as shown on the
next page.
