The user stations that receive the Multiple Video outputs
Note: Depending on your purpose, the associated channels can also be
connected to different servers and output the video data accordingly.
Naming Convention for Multiple Video
For documentation purpose, the following name conventions will be used
to describe the Multiple Video function:
Name Meaning
ACTIVATOR channel The “first” channel specified in the channel association setting.
Access to this channel causes the other channels of this association
group to output their data.
FOLLOWER channel The channel(s) other than the ACTIVATOR channel in the
association setting.
These channels automatically output their data when the
ACTIVATOR channel is accessed.
ACTIVATOR user station
(or user port) The user station (or user port) that you use to access an
ACTIVATOR channel of an association group.
FOLLOWER user station
(or user port) The user stations (or user ports) that receive the data outputs from
the FOLLOWER channels after the Multiple Video function is
activated.
FOLLOWER user stations (or user ports) are subsequent to the
ACTIVATOR user station (or user port).
Connecting CIMs to a Multi-Channel Video Server
A multi-channel video server is a server with multiple video ports. When
you connect CIMs to this kind of server for multiple video outputs, make
sure that each CIM gets its power from the server's PS/2 keyboard or USB
port. Usually a server provides one PS/2 keyboard port only. Therefore,
you must use P2CIM-AUSB for additional CIMs to gain power from
available USB ports on the same server.
1. Fully connect one CIM to the server's ports, be it P2CIM-APS2 or
P2CIM-AUSB.
ƒ
P2CIM-APS2: Connected to the server's video, keyboard and
mouse ports.
ƒ
P2CIM-AUSB: Connected to the server's video and USB ports.
Note: This CIM must be set as the ACTIVATOR channel so note down
its channel number for later use.
