Chapter 1. Introduction Overview The Master View CL-1208 / CL-1216 KVM Switch is a control unit that allows access to multiple co mputers from a single KVM (keyboard, monitor, and mouse), console.
Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables in to their appropriate ports is all that is entailed. Because the CL-1208 / CL-1216 intercep ts keyboard input directly, there is no soft ware to configure; no n eed to get involved in complex installation routin es; nor any need to be concerned with incompatibility problems.
Features M Integrated KVM console with 15"o r 17" L CD m onito r - in a Slideaway housing M Slideaway housing is less than 1U - w ith top and bot tom clearance for smooth operation in a 1U high system rack. M Space saving technology - two cons oles (one bus ) co ntro ls up to 8 (CL-1208) or 16 (CL-1216) computers.

Daisy Chaining To control even more computers, up to 31 Master View ACS-1208A / ACS-1216A units can be daisy chain ed down from the CL-1208 / CL-1216. Note: It would be unnecessarily wasteful and expensive to use CL-1208 / CL-1216 switches for dais y chaining since there is no point in having consoles on the chain ed switches.
5. Power up the ins tallatio n acco rdin g to th e follo wing proced ure: a) Power on the First Station (CL-1208 or CL-1216).
