When OmniViews are cascaded, they should follow a tree configuration, not having more than three levels
deep. The console (keyboard, mouse and monitor) is connected to the singular, top-level OmniView. See
the figure below for more information:
NOTE: OmniViews on the second and third level must have all their DIP switches set to OFF.
