NTI UNIMUX SERIES USB KVM SWITCH

.
Figure 32- Cascaded configuration with multi-user slaves
FYI: Any USER and MONITOR ports on a multi-user switch connected as a slave that do not get connected to the master
can be connected to by users (for example users 5-8 in Fig. 30). Users connected to a slave downstream from the
master will control only the CPUs directly connected to that slave switch (i.e. users 5 and 6 in Fig. 32 above can only
control CPUs 25-40).

Note: All UNIMUX-USBV-x switches must be powered OFF during dip-switch configuration
Note: Dip-switches only need to be configured if one or more slave switches was made prior to 10-1-04. Otherwise, all
switches should be OFF.
These switch settings (Table 2) enable the slave to
establish its identity (i.e. location in the group) to the
Master.
Side Note: In a Master, the same switches are used to
configure the Master for how many slaves are attached
to it.
