If any of these problems occur, turn the Switch Off, then turn it On again.

7.Turn on the power to the PCs.

Note: You must turn on the power to the Master View Pro before turning on the power to the PCs.

Daisy Chaining

To provide control for more PCs than just a single Master View Pro unit allows, up to 31 additional Master View Pro units can be daisy chained down form the original one. In this way, as many as 128, 256, 512 PCs can be controlled in a complete installation depending on which model your installation uses (CS-1004, CS-1008, or CS-1016, respectively).

Note: While it is physically possible to mix the different Master View Pro models on the same daisy chain, we strongly recommend against it, as doing so can cause problems with Hot Key and OSD port switching. Please use all of the units of the same model when daisy chaining.

The first Master View (the one that the console connects to), is considered the First Station; the Master View that daisy chains to it is considered the Second Station; the Master View daisy chained to the Second Station is considered the Third Station, etc. To daisy chain a Master View, do the following:

1.Make sure that power to all the devices (Master View Pros and PCs) you will be connecting up, including all pre-existing devices on the installation, have been turned off.

2.Make sure that DIP Switches 1 - 5 of the First Station Master View Pro are all set to the ON position to set it up as a First Station unit (see the table on p. 23 for Dip Switch Station Setting details).

3.Set DIP Switches 1 - 5 of the of the Second (Third, Fourth, etc.), Station Master View Pro according to the table provided on page 23.
