Hosts Configuration
The Host Configuration menu allows you to configure various details for each of the host systems that are connected
to the UltraMatrix Remote 2. Each of the 128 entries can be configured with a name, the permitted users, and the hot
key combinations to switch to each host system.
Click on the “Erase Host Configuration” tab to remove
all host entries if needed.
Check the box “Add entry for unrecognized host” to
add any system connected to that is not specified in
the Host list. Verify these added hosts for the correct
Hot key sequence and user permission. Connecting to
complex cascaded systems should be verified.
It is recommended that the naming and hot key
assignments for each Host Configuration entry
match the CPU port configuration of the UltraMatrix
Remote 2.
Entry #1 - Name and hot key defined to switch to CPU
port #1, Entry #2 for CPU port #2, etc. Examples of
Hot key sequences for switching to a given port are
shown below.
