An optional multimedia module can be LINKed to the back of each
StreamLine for selecting microphone and stereo speaker signals.
There are two options for Audio Stick : ON and Off. When set to 'On',
audio selection follows computer selection. When set to 'Off', audio
selection stops following computer selection. It is useful if you want to
listen to a particular computer's audio signal while operating other
computers.

The StreamLine generates 1 or 2 beeps corresponding to On and Off
respectively.

Connection
Before connecting a device (a computer or a Slave KVM switch) to the
Master StreamLine KVM switch under power, you must turn off the device.
The Master must have equal or more 'PC x' ports than that of the Slave,
i.e., if SL-18 is the master, SL-18 can be a Slave, but not the SL-216.
The ports labeled "PC 1"~”PC 8” can be connected to either a compu ter
or a Slave's CONSOLE port, as shown in figure 8. The ports “PC A"~”PC
H” can only be connected to a computer.
Figure 8: Slave console connection
The maximum number of computers controlled by a master/slave
configuration with all 8-port units is 64 -- with 8 Slaves and each Slave
connects to 8 computers, see figure 9.

For OSD menu:
After connection completes, you should re-activate
the OSD menu to check if the Master recognizes the
Slaves. A triangle mark (
4) is placed to the right of
the channel name indicating the port is connected to
a Slave not a computer. A number to the left of the
triangle mark indicates the Slave model, i.e. 8
4 for
an 8-port switch.
