6. Turn on the power to the Master View.

Note: When you turn the unit On, it undergoes a Power On Self Test. If there

is a problem, Port LEDs 1 - 4 flash repeatedly according to a pattern
that indicates what the problem is:

Indication

LEDs 1 - 4 Flash Simultaneously

Internal RAM Memory Error

If any of these problems occur, turn the Switch Off, then turn it On again.

7. Turn on the power to the PCs.

Note: You must turn on the power to the Master View Pro before turning on

the power to the PCs.

Daisy Chaining

To provide control for more PCs than just a single Master View Pro unit allows,
up to 31 additional Master View Pro units can be daisy chained down form the
original one. In this way, as many as 128, 256, 512 PCs can be controlled in a
complete installation depending on which model your installation uses
(CS-1004, CS-1008, or CS-1016, respectively).

Note: While it is physically possible to mix the different Master View Pro models

on the same daisy chain, we strongly recommend against it, as doing so
can cause problems with Hot Key and OSD port switching. Please use all
of the units of the same model when daisy chaining.

The first Master View (the one that the console connects to), is considered the
First Station; the Master View that daisy chains to it is considered the Second
Station; the Master View daisy chained to the Second Station is considered the
Third Station, etc. To daisy chain a Master View, do the following:

1. Make sure that power to all the devices (Master View Pros and PCs) you will

be connecting up, including all pre-existing devices on the installation, have
been turned off.

2. Make sure that DIP Switches 1 - 5 of the First Station Master View Pro are all

set to the ON position to set it up as a First Station unit (see the table on p.
23 for Dip Switch Station Setting details).

3. Set DIP Switches 1 - 5 of the of the Second (Third, Fourth, etc.), Station

Master View Pro according to the table provided on page 23.
