System introduction

Thank you for choosing the Rose Electronics MultiStation PC. The MultiStation PC is the result of Rose Electronics commitment to providing state-of-the-art solutions for today’s demanding workplace. The MultiStation PC has proven to be a valuable investment for any business, home, or office that has a need to share a common computer between two or more users.

The MultiStation PC system consists of two Units, a PCI card and the remote user module. The PCI card installs in an unused PCI slot in the computer being shared. The remote user module connects to a keyboard, monitor, and mouse. The PCI card and remote user module are connected together with industry standard CAT-5 shielded, solid core twisted-pair cable terminated with RJ45 connectors.

Using the MultiStation PC to expand the use of a common computer has several advantages that make it convenient for the users. With the MultiStation PC you get all the benefits of a second computer without the expense of purchasing another computer. Each user can work independently on the same or different application. One user can be updating the company’s financials and another user developing a software application with no interference. Each user can have their own Windows desktop, and share peripheral devices like printers, plotters, and scanners.

Users can share a common modem and both connect and surf the web or send and receive E-mail over a single phone or DSL line with a single Internet connection. In a network environment, both users can share the PC’s network adapter and connection.
