Two Stage Cascade
To control even more computers, additional CS1798 / CS17916 units can be
cascaded from the KVM ports of the First Stage unit. The cascaded CS1798 /
CS17916s that connect back to the First Stage unit are considered Second Stage
units. As many as 64 (CS1798) or 256 (CS17916) computers can be controlled
in a complete two stage installation. A table showing the relation between the
number of computers and the number of units needed to control them is
provided on page 71.
To set up a two stage installation, refer to the Two Stage Installation diagram
on the next page as you do the following:
1. Make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting up,
including all preexisting devices on the installation, have been turned off.
2. Use a custom USB HDMI KVM cable set (see Cables , page 6) to connect
any available KVM Port on the First Stage unit to the Console ports of the
Second Stage unit.
Note: Plug the USB Type A connector into the lower USB (keyboard) port
in the Console section (they are both marked with a similar icon to
remind you of the correct USB port).
3. Using another custom USB HDMI KVM cable set (provided with this
package), plug the HDMI connector into any available HDMI socket in the
KVM port section of the second stage switch, then plug the accompanying
USB Type B, and speaker connectors into their corresponding USB, and
speaker sockets.
Note: 1. Verify that all the plugs are in the same KVM Port sockets (all in
Port 1, all in Port 2, etc.), and that each socket is marked with an
appropriate icon to indicate itself.
2. The CS1798/CS17916 only supports speaker ports. Do not
connect a KVM cable's microphone connector to the speaker
ports.
4. At the other end of the cable, plug the USB Type A, video, and speaker
cables into their respective ports on the computer.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for any other computers you are connecting up.
6. For each Second Stage unit, plug the power adapter cable into its Power
Jack, then plug the power adapter into an AC source.
