Port ID Numbering

Each CPU port on the GCS1204 is assigned a port number (1, 2, 3, or 4). The port numbers are marked on the rear panel of the switch and each switch LED has a corresponding number for easy identification

The Port ID of a computer is derived from the CPU port number to which it is connected. For example, a computer connected to CPU port 2 has a Port ID of 2.

The Port ID is used to specify which computer gets the KVM, USB peripheral, and / or audio focus with the Hotkey port selection method
