Chapter 1.

Introduction

Overview

The Master View CL-1208 / CL-1216 KVM Switch is a control unit that

allows access to multiple computers from a single KVM (keyboard, monitor,

and mouse), console. Before the development of the Master View, the only

way to control multiple computer configurations from a single console was

through a complex and costly network system. Now, with the Master View

CL-1208 / CL-1216, you can easily access multiple computers in a cost

effective manner.

A single Master View CL-1208 or CL-1216 can control up to 8 or 16

computers, respectively. As many as 31 additional Master View units can be

daisy chained to each other, so that up to 256 (CL-1208 + ACS-1208A) or

512 (CL-1216 + ACS-1216A) computers can all be controlled from a single

keyboard-monitor-mouse console.

The Master View CL-1208 / CL-1216 offers a space-saving, streamlined

approach to KVM switch technology by integrating a keyboard, LCD

monitor, and touchpad in a Slideaway™housing. The LCD display is built

into the cover; the keyboard and touchpad are built into the base. Slide the

KVM module section out; flip the cover up; and you are ready to go to work.

When finished, flip the cover down and slide the KVM module away.

For further convenience, the Slideaway™housing is 1U high for easy rack

mounting. The CL-1208 / CL-1216 also features high density 15 pin

connectors instead of the usual 25 pin connectors. This space-saving

innovation allows a full, 16 port switch to be installed in a 1U system rack.

Because of its modular design, the KVM section can be detached from the

switch section.

Your CL-1208 / CL-1216 investment is protected by an included Firmware

Upgrade Utility. You can stay current with the latest functionality

improvements by downloading firmware update files from our website as

they become available, and using the utility to quickly and conveniently

perform the upgrade.

2005-04-26

Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that

is entailed. Because the CL-1208 / CL-1216 intercepts keyboard input

directly, there is no software to configure; no need to get involved in

complex installation routines; nor any need to be concerned with

incompatibility problems.

Access to any computer connected to the installation is easily accomplished

either by entering Hotkey combinations from the keyboard, or by means of a

powerful, mouse driven, OSD (On Screen Display) menu system. A

convenient Auto Scan feature also permits automatic scanning and

monitoring of the activities of all computers running on the installation one

by one.

There is no better way to save time and money than with a Master View

CL-1208 / CL-1216 installation. By using the Master View CL-1208 /

CL-1216 with its Slideaway™console to manage your installation, you: (1)

eliminate the expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard, monitor,

and mouse for each computer; (2) save all the space those extra components

would take up; (3) save the space that a keyboard, monitor, and mouse

would take with a standard KVM switch; (4) save on energy costs; and (5)

eliminate the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving

from one computer to another.
