To set up a daisy chained installation, refer to the diagram on page 25 and do
the following:
1. Use a daisy chain cable set (described in the Cables section, p. 5), to con-
nect the chain out port of the master KM0832 station to the chain in port
of the slave KM0432 station (first station out to second station in, second
station out to third station in, etc.).
Note: The KM0832 must occupy the master (first) position in a daisy
chained installation, while the KM0432 must be used as the slave
station(s).
2. If you wish to install any console modules or KVM adapter cables on this
switch, follow the procedures described in Single Stage Installation on
p. 17.
(Repeat the above steps for any additional KM0432 stations you wish to
add to the chain.)
3. Plug the power cords into an AC mains power source and into the power
sockets on the KM0832 and KM0432 stations.
4. Power up the installation according to the following procedure:
a) Switch on the power for the first station (KM0832). Wait one minute for
the station to ascertain its station position. (The KM0832 does not have
a station ID because it always occupies the first station position.)
b) Switch on the power for each station on the installation in turn (second
station, then third station, etc.). In each case, wait for the station
position to be ascertained and displayed on the current station ID before
powering on the next station. (The ID for the second stage station is 02,
the ID for the third stage station is 03, etc.).
c) After all the stations are up, power on the computers.
