Enabling Multi-Screen Control
Due to limited options via OSD, we recommend configuring the Multi-Screen Control only via management
software to carry out the extended configuration options (from firmware V03.08), see chapter 8.9.7, page 223.
When using Multi-Screen Control, switching up to eight connected sources (computers, CPUs) can be
performed at one sink with only one connected mouse and/or keyboard. The sink can consist of up to eight
CON Units and accordingly up to eight monitors, or up to sixteen monitors when using Dual-Head extender
modules. In a matrix system, Multi-Screen Control can be set up at multiple sinks. The CON Units of a sink
with Multi-Screen Control must all be physically connected to the same block of 8 ports on the I/O board.
One of the CON Devices is designated for USB-HID control of the connected sources, below referred to as
“Control CON Device”. Control CON Devices are referred to the extender modules/EXT Units within the
Multi-Screen Control that are connected to keyboard and mouse for operation. If the control has to be
performed via several USB-HID devices, several CON Devices have to be defined as Control CON Device.
Smooth switching of sources with the mouse is performed by dragging the mouse pointer beyond the
respective display to an adjacent display in an arrangement of displays. The displays can be arranged side
by side, in a grid layout, or completely freely. Alternatively, switching can be performed via keyboard
commands according to the ID number in the Multi-Screen Control setup.
NOTICE
When using CON Units with the possibility to connect a local source (computer, CPU) in a Multi-Screen
Control environment, the local switching will be disabled.
When configuring Multi-Screen Control via OSD, the number of supported displays is limited to four.
To configure more than four displays (up to eight with Single-Head and up to sixteen with Dual-Head
installation), you have to configure the Multi-Screen Control only via management software.
The connected sources (computer, PC) need to support absolute mouse mode. Else a specific mouse
driver needs to be installed.
CON Units that have been already configured for Multi-Screen Control can be connected all together to
other blocks of 8 ports. In this case any further configuration is not necessary, their functionality will remain
as set previously.
