OVERVIEW

MULTIVIDEO INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL 1

This manual supplement explains the additional information needed to

install and configure the MultiVideo products. Use this supplement in

conjunction with the supplied manual. The supplied manual explains the

additional features and the on-screen display capability of the MultiVideo.

System overview

The MultiVideo is designed to provide seamless, trouble-free switching from

a single KVM station to any connected computer and display the multi-video

output from the computer. You can switch to any of the connected

computers by simple keyboard commands, the front panel – or + buttons, or

from a computer terminal or standalone PC connected to the RS/232 serial

port (not connected to a CPU port). With the OSD option, you can switch to

a connected computer from an on-screen list of the connected computers.

Refer to the UltraView Pro manual for detailed switching instructions.

If your system demands are greater than a single unit can provide, the

MultiVideo can be easily expanded to connect up to 64 computers by

chaining units together with expansion cables. All MultiVideo models can

easily be expanded by chaining the units together and configuring the

system. Using the 2 port “M”-chassis, you can expand the system to 4

computers. The 4 port “B”-chassis can expand to 16 computers, and the 8

port “C”-chassis can expand to 64 computers.

Features



Access up to 64 computers from one KVM station



Optional On-Screen-Display



Available in three different chassis sizes:

M - Chassis - 2 CPUs to 1 Kbd, 1 mouse, and 2 monitors

B - Chassis - 4 CPUs to 1 Kbd, 1 mouse, and 2 monitors

C - Chassis - 2 CPUs to 1 Kbd, 1 mouse, and 4 monitors

4 CPUs to 1 Kbd, 1 mouse, and 4 monitors

8 CPUs to 1 Kbd, 1 mouse, and 2 monitors

VIDEO connection

Video inputs 2-4 are DB25F connectors. A DB25 to HD15 cable is needed

for each video output from a CPU.

Cables

Master to Slave unit cables

In systems needing additional CPUs, the MultiVideo can be cascaded to

other MultiVideos. To cascade a MultiVideo to other “Slave” units, you will

need one DB25M to DB25M, switch-to-switch cable for each cascaded unit.

The MultiVideo can also be expanded to add additional Video ports. A

DB9M to DB9M, switch-to-switch cable is used with the MultiVideo video

expansion units.

The MultiVideo can be custom configured to expand the number of video

ports. The example below can have up to 16 separate video sources and

up to 8 video outputs. The KVM station can switch the video by simple

keyboard commands, the push-button switches on the front panel, or from

the on-screen display. Refer to the UltraView Pro manual for detailed

switching instructions.
