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.
3. Basic Operation
