7.1.4. Current active channel number

The channel number of the currently operated computer is displayed in the
upper-right corner.
If the active channel is part of the 2nd or 3rd cascade layer, the string will
be displayed in the format XX-YY-ZZ. For example, 02-05-07 means that
layer 1 - channel 2, linked to layer 2 - channel 5, linked to layer 3 - channel
7 is the currently active channel.

7.1.5. Cascade parent channel number

This indicates the parent channel of this cascade layer. The number at the
upper-left corner below the KVM layer number shows the port number of
the upper layer KVM to which the slave KVM is connected (i.e. 8 indicates
a link from channel 8 of the upper KVM switch).
This is only the case for the 2nd and 3rd cascade layer. The OSD will
display a blank for the 1st layer since there is no parent channel in that
case.

7.1.6. Page Down/Up Indicator

Note: When using a 16-port KVM switch, the information about ports 1 ~ 8
is displayed on the first page while information for ports 9 ~ 16 is displayed
on the second page. Since the port information is divided into two pages,
the page down/up indicator is a reminder that you can switch between
pages by using the <Page Down> and <Page Up> keys.
