3. Basic Operation

Port ID Numbering

Each KVM port on the installation is assigned a unique Port ID. The Port ID is

made up of two parts: a Station Number, and a Port Number:

 The Station Number – is a two digit number which reflects the switch's

position in the daisy chain sequence.

Note: 1. The first station CL1008 / CL1016 has a station number of 01.

The first daisy chained unit has a station number of 02, etc.

2. The daisy chained switches have front panel LEDs that display

their station IDs.

 The Port Number – is a two digit number which reflects the port on the

station that the computer is connected to.

 The station number precedes the Port Number.

 Station and port numbers from 1–9 are padded with a preceding zero, so

they become 01–09.

For example, a computer attached to Port 6 of Station 12 would have a port

ID of 12-06.

Port Selection

The CL1008 / CL1016 provides three port selection methods you can use to

access the computers on the installation: manual; OSD menus, and hotkey.

Manual port switching is discussed below; OSD operation is discussed in the

next chapter; hotkey port selection is discussed in Chapter 5.

Manual Port Switching

 Press a switch to bring the KVM focus to the computer attached to its

corresponding port.

 Press buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously for two seconds to perform a

keyboard and mouse reset.

 Press buttons 7 and 8 (CL1008), or 15 and 16 (CL1016) simultaneously

for two seconds to invoke Auto Scan Mode (see p. 37).
