Type in the port number for this computer and press RETURN or ENTER. Define the users that you want user to have access to this computer the SPACE BAR and function keys as directed on the menu. The starred users will have access to this computer. Don't worry if all the users have not yet been defined. You can allocate computers to users when you add the users later.

Press RETURN or ENTER to create the new computer name.

When you are adding computers it is advisable to setup just one name for any particular port. Avoid creating two names for the same port as this can lead to confusion. Also, if you are using ports to cascade to other LINDY Dual/Quad PRO’s, avoid setting up unique names for individual ports that form part of a group of ports that are being used to cascade. For example, if you are using group 41 (ports 1,2,3 and 4) to cascade to another LINDY Dual/Quad PRO then avoid setting up individual names for these ports.

Follow a similar process to edit computer names:

In the EDIT COMPUTER LIST use the menu bar to select the computer that you want to edit. Press ENTER or RETURN to edit the computer's name or change the users who you want to have access to this computer. Press RETURN or ENTER if you want to keep the existing entries.

Creating entries for computers connected to cascaded LINDY Dual/Quad

PRO’s

You can cascade LINDY Dual/Quad PRO 4 units using one, two, three or four KVM links and LINDY Dual/Quad PRO 2 units using one or two KVM links. Section 2.5 explains the rules that you must follow when installing a LINDY Dual/Quad PRO cascade. The number of cascade links that you install determines the number of simultaneous users that can access computers on the cascaded LINDY Dual/Quad PRO’s. Ideally if you are cascading 4 units then you should use four cascade links as this will cause no blocking and will allow all four users simultaneous access to all computers.
