Introduction
INTRODUCTION
The CCS-PRO series of switches are focussed upon allowing you to
seemlessly access multiple computers and their display screens, using
common peripherals.
With the CCS-PRO4 switch, you can use a single USB keyboard and USB
mouse to full functions that previously required four separate sets. This
provides immediate savings in both desk space and also the time required to
access and control up to four systems and screens. The CCS-PRO4 features
our True Emulation technology, which ensures that the full characteristics of
the connected USB keyboard and mouse are passed to every system.
In addition to switching the keyboard and mouse, the CCS-PRO4 can also
share a set of speakers and two separate USB peripherals between the four
systems. This can be done either in concert with the keyboard and mouse
(and each other) or totally independently.
The CCS-PRO4 switch can be used in combination with various Adder
extender products (such as AdderLink Innity, X50 and X-DVIPRO) to extend
the distance between the user and the computers under control.
Switching between the systems connected to the CCS-PRO4 can be achieved
in six different ways:
• The innovative Free-Flow automatic switching utility,
• The COMPUTER button on the front panel,
• Keyboard hotkey combinations,
• Mouse button combinations,
• Remote control via an external system,
• The optional remote control selector.
Where additional feedback is required as to which systems and screens are
selected at any time, the optional CCS-XB kit provides discreet stick-on LED
monitor indicators. When a system/screen is selected, a corresponding LED
monitor indicator illuminates (in a choice of colours) to conrm the action.
Free-Flow
An innovative in-built utility that allows the unit
to automatically switch between channels by
monitoring the mouse pointer position.
The keyboard/mouse, the speakers and two individual
USB channels can be collectively or separately
switched through to each PC system using a variety
of manual and/or automatic switching methods.
