Expanding The System Through Stacking; Adjusting The Bus Address Of Matrix Switches - G&D ControlCenter-Digital-80 Installationsanleitung

Expanding the system through stacking

In Stacking mode, you can switch multiple matrix switches at the same time.
For this, connect the matrix switches via
bus addresses.
Each stacking matrix switch consists of a matrix switch that provides the
. You can add up to 9 satellite matrix switches to the matrix switch. The sat-

ellites can be used either as
IMPORTANT: Within a channel, you can only use compatible target and user
modules:
Video Follower Channel:
USB/RS232 Main Channel:
U2-CPU series
NOTE:
Connect the user modules of one console to the same port numbers of the
different channels.
The same applies for the different target modules of one computer.
When using three matrix switches, for example, you can transmit a second video
signal and USB 2.0 signals in addition to the standard signals of a user module
(video signal and keyboard and mouse signals):
Matrix switch
Matrix switch 1 (Primary)
Matrix switch 2 (Satellite 1)
Matrix switch 3 (Satellite 2)

Adjusting the bus address of matrix switches

The primary matrix switch automatically makes the stack matrix switches access the
same port that the user accesses at the primary matrix switch.
This requires the correct setting of the bus address in the individual matrix switches.
