8.Next, select “Expansion width” from the configure system menu and press enter. Enter the number of computer ports on a slave unit and press enter. This setting determines how many computers are on an expansion unit and determines which computer number is associated with which physical connector. If all expansion units have an equal number of ports, enter the number of ports on one expansion unit for the width number. If there are mixed expansion units with a different number of ports, the width value should be the number of computer ports that is on the expansion unit that has the most computer ports. Care should be taken when mixing slave units. For example, if your system consists of an 8-port master, two 8-port slaves and a one 4-port slave, and you program the expansion width to 8, there will be 4 blind ports on the 4-port unit. If you program the expansion width to 4, then only computers 1-4 on the 8-port slave units can be accessed.

9.Finally, select “Expansion units” and press enter. Enter the total number of slave units in the system and press enter. This command configures how may slave units are connected to the master unit.

10.Press Esc key to return to the main menu and select “Exit” and press enter. You will be prompted to save the changes made. Select “Yes” and press enter to save.
