Port Id Numbering; Powering Off And Restarting - ATEN CS1708i User Manual

Port ID Numbering

Each computer on a CS1708i / CS1716i installation is assigned a unique Port
ID. The Port ID is made up of two parts: a Station Number, and a Port Number:
 The Station Number represents the position of the switch that the computer
is connected to in the daisy chain sequence.
 The Port Number represents the position of the port that the computer is
connected to on the CS1708i / CS1716i station.
 The station number precedes the port number.
 Station and port numbers from 1–9 are padded with a preceding zero, so
they become 01–09.
For example, a computer attached to Port 6 of a station that was 12th in the
daisy chain sequence, would have a Station Number of 12 and a Port Number
of 06. It's Port ID would be: 12-06.

Powering Off and Restarting

If it becomes necessary to power off a CS1708i / CS1716i, do the following
before restarting it:
1. Shut down all the computers that are attached to the CS1708i / CS1716i.
Note: Unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard
Power On function. Otherwise, the CS1708i / CS1716i will still
receive power from the computers.
2. Unplug the CS1708i / CS1716i from its power source.
3. Wait 10 seconds, then plug the CS1708i / CS1716i back in.
4. After the CS1708i / CS1716i has started and ascertained its station ID,
power on the computers.
Note: If you have shut down more than one station, power up the highest
station first and work your way down to the lowest one.
