If your system consists of cascaded units, the expansion sec tion of the Configure System menu must be properly

configured to provide the needed information to manage the s lave units.

It is recommended that all slave units have the same num ber of CPU ports as the “Master” unit. To change the

“Maximum computers”, “Expansion width”, and “Expansion u nits”, use the up/down arrow keys and select the item

and press enter. An input box will display for a new valu e. (See figure 5)

Maximum computers

This setting configures the total number of computers that are connected and provides a wrap around value for

scanning. Switching commands are validated against this val ue for a valid port number. The “Maximum computers”

value is the Expansion width value times the number of s lave units plus the CPU ports on the master unit that are not

used for expansion. Enter the number of connected com puters and press enter. Valid entries are 2 to 256.

Expansion width

The “Expansion width” setting determines how many com puters are connected to a slave unit. If the slave units are

4 port units, the width value would be 4. If they are 8 por t units, the expansion width value would be 8. If the

expansion units are a mixture of 4, 8, and/or 16 port units , the “Expansion width” value is the number of CPU ports

on the expansion unit with the greatest number of ports.

Expansion units

The “Expansion units” setting is the number of slave units that are connected to the master unit. This value

determines which computer number is associated with which physical connector.

If no expansion units are used, this number should be set to zero.
