Port ID Numbering
Each port on a GCL1908W/GCL1916W installation is assigned a unique Port ID. You can
directly access any computer on any level of the installation by specifying the Port ID that
the computer is connected to – either via OSD (See
OSD Operation
) or with Hotkey port
selection method (See
Keyboard Port Operation
)
• A computer connected to a master unit has a two digit Port ID (from 01-08 for the
GCL1908W; from 01-16 for the GCL1916W) that corresponds to the KVM port number it
is connected to
•
A computer attached to a slave unit has a four digit Port ID. The first two digits represent
the KVM port number on the slave unit that the computer is connected to. For example,
a Port ID of 02-16 would refer to a computer that is connected to KVM port 16 of a slave
unit that links back to KVM port 2 of the master unit.
