The CS-104 is cascadable up to a depth of 3 stages which is selected by DIP switch settings.
One Stage:
In a one-stage system, a single CS-104 can control up to four computers. The DIP switch #4 is set to the
ON position. Connect the monitor output, mouse port, and the keyboard port of a computer to one of the
CS-104’s available PC port groups with the appropriate cables. The 5-pin DIN is for an AT style PC key
