ATEN ACS-1208L - Manual (Page 15)

Port ID Numbering
Each CPU port on a Master View installation is assigned a unique Port ID. The
Port ID is made up of two parts: a Station Number, and a Port Number:
w The Station Number - a two digit number which reflects the ACS-1208L /
ACS-1216L’s position in the daisy chain sequence. This corresponds to the
number displayed on the front panel Station ID LED.
w The Port Number - a two digit number which reflects the port on the
ACS-1208L / ACS-1216L Station that the computer is connected to.
w The Station Number precedes the Port Number.
w 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
Port Selection is accomplished either by entering Hotkey combinations from the
keyboard, or by means of the ACS-1208L / ACS-1216L’s OSD (On Screen
Display). Hotkey Port Selection is discussed in the next section; OSD Operation
is discussed in detail beginning on p. 16.
