8.3 Switching of Video Channels in Dual-Head Mode
CPU Units offer the possibility for a specific switching of single video channels in Dual-Head mode
regarding the device compatibility and the following requirements:
•
The Dual-Head CPU Unit is connected to a Dual-Head source (computer, CPU).
•
An active connection exists between the Dual-Head CPU Unit and the Single-Head CON Unit, either
point-to-point or through a matrix*
•
Identical connection speed (1G/3G).*
* In compliance with the compatibility requirements, see chapter 4.3.1, page 18 and chapter 4.3.2, page 19.
Switching of single video channels is executed by using the following keyboard commands at the CON Unit:
Keyboard command
Function
<Hot Key>, <d>,
<1>, <Enter>
Switch to video channel 1 of the Dual-Head CPU Unit
<Hot Key>, <d>,
<2>, <Enter>
Switch to video channel 2 of the Dual-Head CPU Unit
8.4 Switching of two different CPU Units via redundant CON Unit
CON Units with a redundant port for interconnect cables offer the possibility to connect two different
CPU Units with different sources (computer, CPU).
To switch a redundant CON Unit with two different CPU Units, proceed as follows:
Keyboard command
Function
<Hot Key>, <k>,
<1>, <Enter>
Switching to the extender module connection 1
<Hot Key>, <k>,
<2>, <Enter>
Switching to the extender module connection 2
Point-to-point connection
With extender modules connected directly, the switching of redundant CON Units to extender module
connection 2 is not available for keyboards connected to add-on modules with USB-HID interface.
Matrix connection
With extender modules connected via a matrix, the switching of redundant CON Units to extender module
connection 2 is also available for keyboards connected to add-on modules with USB-HID interface.
