The OmniView™ SE has the capability to be daisy-chained to additional units for control over more computers. Up to four OmniView™ SE units can be daisy chained together, whether

2-Port, 4-Port, or a mixture of both. The example above shows two OmniView™ SE 2-Port units and two OmniView™ SE 4-Port units daisy-chained together.

Each OmniView™ SE unit is defined as a BANK. See diagram above for more information. BANK numbers range from 0 to 3 for a total of 4 BANKs. BANK 0 is the MASTER bank, while banks 1 through 3 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 page 5 for the actual settings. If you are using the OmniView™ SE 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 3.
