The OmniView™ PRO has the capability to be daisy-chained to 15 more units (for a total of 16), giving the user control over a maximum of 256 computers!

Each OmniView™ PRO unit is defined as a “BANK.” See diagram above for more information. BANK numbers range from 0 to F (hexadecimal), for a total of 16 BANKs. BANK 0 is the MASTER bank, while banks 1 through F are slave banks. The MASTER bank is the unit that connects to the console keyboard, mouse, and monitor.

The DIP switches must be set correctly for proper identification and usage. See the next section for the actual settings. If you are using the OmniView™ PRO in a single-unit configuration, it must be set as the MASTER (BANK 0). If it is to be used as a slave unit, then it must be set to any unused unique bank number from 1 through F.
