Two Stage Installation
One to four Master View CS-114 units can be cascaded from the CPU Ports of the
parent unit. The Master View CS-114s that connect back to the First Stage unit are
considered Second Stage units. As many as 16 PCs can be controlled in a complete
two stage installation.
A table showing the relation between the number of PCs and the number of Master
View units needed to control them is provided in the Appendix. To set up a two stage
installation, do the following:
1.Make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting up, as well as
preexisting devices on the installation have been turned off.
2.Make sure that DIP Switch 4 of the First Stage Master View CS-114 is set to the ON
(Cascade Disabled) position.
3.Make sure that DIP Switch 4 of all Second Stage Master View CS-114s are set to the
OFF (Cascade Enabled) position.
4.Use extender cables to connect the ports from any available CPU Port (CPU1 -
CPU4) on the First Stage unit to the Console Port connectors of the Second Stage
Master View CS-114.
Note:When cascading, you must use AT type (5 pin DIN) extender cables for
connecting the keyboard ports.
5. Plug the DC power adapter into the Master View CS-114's Power Jack.
6. Repeat the steps 2 - 5 for any other Second Stage Master View CS-114 units you
wish to connect.
7. Use either AT or PS/2 style extender cables to connect the keyboard and mouse
ports from any available CPU Port (CPU1 - CPU4), to the keyboard and mouse
ports of the PC, as shown in the diagram below.
8. Use a VGA extender cable to connect the CPU Port monitor port to the monitor
port of the PC, as shown in the diagram below.
9. Turn on the power to all the Master View CS-114 units.
10.Turn on the power to all the connected PCs.
Note:You must turn the power to the Master View CS-114 units On before turning on
the power to the PCs.

Three Stage Installation
The procedures for setting up a three stage Master View CS-114 configuration are
essentially the same as for a two stage installation. With a three stage setup,
however, as many as 64 PCs can be controlled in a complete installation. A table
showing the relation between the number of PCs and the number of Master View
units needed to control them is provided in the Appendix.
Note:Master View CS-114 units can not be cascaded beyond the third level.
