Three Stage Installation
The procedures for setting up a three stage installation are essentially the same as for a two
stage installation. With a three stage setup, however, as many as 512 PCs can be controlled in
a complete installation. A table showing the relation between the number of PCs and the
number of LINDY CPU Switch units needed to control them is provided in the Appendix.
Note: LINDY CPU Switch units cannot be cascaded beyond the third level.
To set up a three stage installation, connect all CPU Switches and PCs in the same way as
described in the previous section.
Note: The Power On sequence requires that all Third Stage units be powered on first. After all
the Third Stage units have been powered on, then the Second Stage units must be powered on
next. After all the Second Stage units have been powered on then the First Stage unit must be
powered on. After all the LINDY CPU Switch have been powered on, the computers can be
powered on.
