Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port on a Master View installation is assigned a unique Port ID.
The Port ID is made up of two parts: a Station Number, and a Port Number:
The Station Number - is a two digit number which reflects the switch's
position in the daisy chain sequence.
Note: 1. The first station CL-1208 / CL-1216 has a Station Number of 01.
The first daisy chained unit (ACS-1208A / ACS-1216A) has a
Station Number of 02, etc.
2. The daisy chained ACS-1208A / ACS-1216As have front panel
LEDs that display their Station IDs.
The Port Number - is a two digit number which reflects the port on the
Station that the computer is connected to.
The Station Number precedes the Port Number.
Station and Port numbers from 1 - 9 are padded with a preceding zero, so
they become 01 - 09.
For example, a computer attached to Port 6 of Station 12 would have a Port
ID of: 12-06.
