Chapter 4 Advanced Operation And System Configuration; Toggling The Channel Sorting - Raritan MCCAT18 User Manual

Chapter 4
In this chapter, you will learn more about the OSD or front panel
operations for advanced features, such as updating the channel status,
setting up the security feature, etc.
If your MCCAT is a two-tier system, you must perform these operations
on the first-tier MCCAT unit. Make sure you have programmed all of the
second-tier MCCAT units as the second-tier devices; otherwise, any
operation or setting you have done will apply to the first-tier MCCAT
unit only instead of the whole system. For information on how to
programme an MCCAT unit as a second-tier device, see STEP 1:
Programme an MCCAT Unit as a Second-Tier Device (on page 33).
Note: In a two-tier system, SCAN, SKIP and channel buttons of all second-tier
devices are disabled. However, these buttons work properly on the first-tier
MCCAT unit.
