8. If you have created a Master/Slave CPU Unit, select
Definition >
CPU Devices
in the task area of the Master Matrix and press the
New
button.
A switchable CPU Device will be created.
9. Enter an appropriate extender name into the
Name
field.
10. Assign the previously configured Extender Unit to the just created
Device by moving the Extender Unit from the
Extender available
field into the
Extender assigned
field and save your settings by
pressing the
Apply
button.
11. Connect to the Sub Matrix and repeat steps 1 to 10.
12. Select
System > System Data
in the task area of the Sub Matrix and
activate the
Sub Matrix
option.
The OSD of the Sub Matrix will immediately freeze and will be only
accessible by using the keyboard command <'Hot Key'>, <s>, <o>.
13. Restart all I/O boards on which any Master/Slave CON or CPU Units
have been configured or alternatively restart the matrix.
14. Connect the Tie Lines to the matrices. Ensure that each
Master/Slave CON
on one matrix is connected to
Master/Slave CPU
on the other matrix in order to achieve switchability between two
matrices.
The Matrix Cascading is now configured and can be used. Additional Tie
Lines are configured accordingly. The use of cascading is described in

5.13 Matrix Grid
In this menu you can configure a Matrix Grid in order to connect two or
more matrices. This kind of configuration may become necessary if the
number of ports in the entire system has to be increased or if certain
important connections should be distributed to several matrices due to
reasons of redundancy.
The connections between two matrices have to be established by so
called Grid Lines that are connected between particular I/O ports as
connecting links. The Grid Lines can be used bidirectionally and can
respectively handle a full access connection of a CON Device to a CPU
Device.
