Conguring multiple monitors
Multi-Monitor conguration 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 cong app on the previous page.
1 If it is not already running, start the Free-Flow conguration application on the
computer that is connected to the network port of the CCS-PRO4 switch. See
Installing the standard conguration application for details.
2 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.
3 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 reect the actual positions of the physical monitor screens.
The important thing is to dene where each screen edge abuts to the next so that the
CCS-PRO4 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
CCS-PRO4 switch, while the letters relate to the screen hierarchy attached to any single
computer (i.e. A is primary, B is secondary, etc.).
4 [Optional step] If you need more squares on the grid in order to arrange many
displays in a row, right click on an empty square (or on the darker gray edging) to
enlarge the grid. Further right clicks will add even more empty squares.
5 Continue from step 3 of the standard Free-Flow conguration instructions.
