Port ID Numbering
Each port on a CL1308 / CL1316 installation is assigned a unique Port ID. You
can directly access any computer on any level of the installation by specifying
the Port ID that the computer is connected to – either with the OSD (see OSD
Operation, page 25), or with the Hotkey port selection method (see Keyboard
Port Operation, page 37).
A computer attached to a master unit has a two digit Port ID (from 01–08
for the CL1308; from 01–16 for the CL1316), that corresponds to the
KVM port number that it is connected to.
A computer attached to a slave unit has a four digit Port ID.
The first two digits represent the KVM port number on the master and the
second two digits represent the KVM port number on the slave unit that
the computer is connected to. For example, a Port ID of 02–16 would refer
to a computer that is connected to KVM port 16 of a slave unit that links
back to KVM port 2 of the master unit.
