Port Numbering
Each CPU port on the CS-1772 / CS-1774 switch is assigned a port number (1 or 2
for the CS-1772; 1 to 4 for the CS-1774). The port numbers are marked on the rear
panel of the switch (see p. 7).
The Port ID of a computer is derived from the CPU port number it is connected to.
For example, a computer connected to CPU port 2 has a Port ID of 2.
The Port ID is used to specify which computer gets the KVM, USB hub, and audio
focus with the Hotkey port selection method (see p. 13, for details).
Powering Off and Restarting

2. Wait 10 seconds, then reconnect the KVM cables.
3. Plug the switch’s power adapter cable back in.
Hot Plugging
The Master View CS-1772 / CS-1774 supports USB hot plugging - components can
be removed and added back into the installation by unplugging their cables from the
CPU ports without the need to shut the unit down.
