Two Stage Installation
To control even more computers, up to eight additional Master View CS-88A
units can be cascaded from the KVM ports of the First Stage unit. The cascaded
Master Views that connect back to the First Stage unit are considered Second
Stage units. As many as 64 computers can be controlled in a complete two
stage installation. A table showing the relation between the number of
computers and the number of Master View units needed to control them is
provided on page 42.
Note:
1. Mixing different Master View models on the same installation can
cause problems with OSD port switching. We strongly recommend
that all cascaded units be the same model as the First Stage unit.
2. If you are adding this switch into an already existing CS-88A
configuration, be sure to make it the First Stage unit. Otherwise, you
won’t get the benefit of its improved OSD features and functions.
To set up a two stage installation 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 KVM cable set (described in the Cables section, page 3), to connect
any available KVM Port on the First Stage unit to the Console Port
connectors of the Second Stage unit.
3. Use KVM cable sets (described in the Cables section, page 3), to connect
any available KVM port on the Second Stage unit to the Keyboard, Video,
and Mouse ports of the computer you are installing.
4. Plug the power adapter cable into the Master View’s Power Jack, then plug
the adapter into an AC power source.
5. Repeat these steps for any other Second Stage units you wish to connect.
6. Plug in the power adapter for the First Stage Master View unit.
7. Turn on the power to all the computers.
Note:
The Power On sequence requires that all Second Stage units be
powered on first. After all the Second Stage units have been
powered on, the First Stage unit must be powered on next. After the
Second and First stage units have been powered on, the computers
can be powered on.
