Conﬁguring multiple monitors

Multi-MonitorcongurationissimilartonormalFree-Flowsetupexceptthatyou

can add more than one display per PC, up to a total of eight per machine.

Note: It is necessary to install a driver on each PC that has multiple displays - see

Installing drivers and multi-monitor conﬁg app on the previous page.

1 Usethesuppliedashupgradecable(VSC40)tolinkthecomputerserial port

to the CCS4-USB OPTIONS port. If the optional CCS-XB module is connected

to the OPTIONS port, then instead connect the upgrade cable between the

computer serial port and the TO KEYPAD OR PC port of the CCS-XB module

(see Optional LED monitor indicator connections for details).

3 On the icon bar, click the red, green, blue and yellow screen icons (or use the

Screens menu) to add the required number of display screens per computer to

the map area.

 Forexample,toaddtwomonitorsforPC1,clicktheredcomputericon

twice. The two red monitor representations will be placed side by side within

the Free-Flow map area.

4 Arrange the coloured rectangular screen representations to mimic the

physical layout of the actual displays. For example, you may wish to have

thetwoscreensofPC1sidebyside,withthetwoscreenscreensofPC2

belowthem(asshownleft),orsomeotherarrangementtoreecttheactual

positions of the physical monitor screens.

The important thing is to deﬁne where each screen edge abuts to the next

so that the CCS4-USB switch can determine the correct moments to switch

channels.

Use the small black squares around the perimeter of each highlighted screen

representation to change their size or stretch them.

Note: The numbers of the screen representations relate directly to the four

channels on the CCS4-USB switch, while the letters relate to the screen

hierarchy attached to any single computer (i.e. A is primary, B is secondary,

etc.).
