Steps 3-9 route the video from all units to the KVM #1 and KVM #2 ports on Unit #1. Now the reverse must be performed to route the video from all units to KVM #3 and KVM #4 ports on the last unit.

(Refer to Figure 6)

For the steps below, the example in Figure 6 is used. Unit #3 is the last unit in the configuration, Unit #2, the next to last unit and so on.

10.Connect a KVM station to Unit #3’s KVM 4 connector and apply power to the monitor. (All UltraMatrix switches power should be ON)

11.Call up the system status display by pressing and releasing the left [Ctrl] key, then the F12 key. Select “Status” from the main menu and press [Enter]. The number of system CPU ports that the last Unit has will be highlighted. If the unit is a 16-port switch, computers 1-4, 5-8, 9-12, and 13-16 will be highlighted on the status screen.

12.Connect an expansion cable

From: Unit #2’s upper “OUT” expansion card connector,

To: Unit #3’s upper “IN” top expansion card connector.

13.Cable in the remaining switches as explained in step 12 from the upper “OUT” connector to the upper “IN” connector.

14.Verify that the status screen report correctly.

Steps 10-14 complete the expansion cabling for a “Split Bus” configuration. KVMs connected to Unit #1, KVM #1 and #2 can access all computers in the system. KVMs connected to the last unit’s KVM #3 and KVM #4 can access all computers in the system.

Next, connect the computers to the UltraMatrix switches.

15.Switch the KVM station to CPU port #1 on Unit #1 by pressing and releasing the left control [Ctrl] key, type in “1” and press [Enter].
