2. Use a daisy chain cable set (described in the Cables section, p.
1-5), to connect the Chain Out port of the parent switch to the
Chain In port of the child switch (First Station Out to Second
Station In, Second Station Out to Third Station In, etc.).
Note: You cannot use the Chain In port of the First Station
Master View, since it is the highest level parent.
3. Use KVM cable sets (described in the Cables section, p. 1-5), to
connect any available CPU Port on the ACS-1208A / ACS-1216A
installation to the Keyboard, Video and Mouse ports of the
computers you are installing.
4. Repeat the above steps for any additional ACS-1208A /
ACS-1216A units you wish to add to the chain.
5. Power up the installation according to the following procedure:
a) Plug in the power adapter for the First Station.
Wait for the unit to ascertain its Station ID and display it on the
Station ID LED. (The Station ID for the First Stage unit is 01, the
ID for the Second Stage unit is 02, the ID for the Third Stage unit
is 03, etc.).
b) Plug in the power adapters for each Station on the installation
in turn (Second Station, then Third Station, etc.).
In each case, wait for the Station ID to be ascertained and
displayed on the current Station before plugging in the next one.
c) After all the Stations are up, power on the computers.
