Chapter 1

Introduction

This chapter introduces you to the ACS1208 / ACS1216 KVM Switch. Its purpose, features and benefits are presented, and its front and back panel components are described.

Overview

The Master View ACS1208 and ACS1216 KVM Switches are control units that allow access to multiple computers from a single console (keyboard, mouse, and monitor). Before the development of the Master View, the only way to control multiple computer configurations from a single console was through a complex and costly network system. Now, with the ACS1208 / ACS1216, you can easily access multiple computers in a cost effective manner.

A single Master View ACS1208 or ACS1216 can control up to 8 or 16 computers. As many as 31 additional ACS1208 / ACS1216 switches can be daisy chained to each other, so that up to 512 computers can all be controlled from a single keyboard-monitor-mouse console.

A custom ASIC (patent pending) provides an auto-sensing function that recognizes the position of each station on the chain, eliminating the need to manually set the position with DIP switches. A seven segment front panel LED displays each Station's position for easy identification.

For further convenience, the ACS1208 / ACS1216 features high density 15 pin connectors instead of the usual 25 pin connectors. This space-saving innovation allows a full, 16 port switch, to be installed in a 1U system rack.

Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that is entailed. Because the ACS1208 / ACS1216 intercepts keyboard input directly, there is no software to configure, so there is no need to get involved in complex installation routines or be concerned with incompatibility problems.

Access to any computer connected to the installation is easily accomplished either by entering Hotkey combinations from the keyboard, or by means of a powerful menu driven OSD (On Screen Display) system. A convenient Auto Scan feature also permits automatic scanning and monitoring of the activities of all computers running on the installation one by one.

ACS1208 / ACS1216 User Manual

There is no better way to save time and money than with a Master View ACS1208 / ACS1216 installation. By allowing a single console to manage all the attached computers, an ACS1208 / ACS1216 installation: (1) eliminates the expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each computer; (2) saves all the space those extra components would take up; (3) saves on energy costs; and (4) eliminates the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving from one computer to another.

1. Port LEDs

The Port LEDs provide status information about their corresponding CPU Ports. They come in pairs - one pair for each Port. The one on the left is the On Line LED; the one on the right is the Selected Port LED:

 An On Line LED lights ORANGE to indicate that the computer

attached to the corresponding port is up and running.

 A Selected LED lights GREEN to indicate that the computer attached

to the corresponding port is the one that has the KVM focus. The LED is steady under normal conditions, but flashes when its port is accessed under Auto Scan Mode (see page 33).

 When the ACS1208 is first powered on, the On Line and Selected

LEDs blink one after the other as the Switch performs a self-test.

2. Reset Switch

Pressing this switch in performs a system reset. This switch is recessed and must be pushed with a thin object - such as the end of a paper clip, or a ballpoint pen.

3. Power LED

Lights to indicate that the ACS1208 is powered up and ready to operate.

4. Station ID LED

The ACS1208's Station ID is displayed here. If this is a Single Station installation (see page 9), or the First Station on a Daisy Chained installation (see page 10), the ACS1208 has a Station ID of 01.

On a Daisy Chained installation, the ACS1208 auto-senses its position and displays the Station ID that corresponds to its place in the chain. (see Port ID Numbering, page 14 for details).

attached to the corresponding port is up and running.

 A Selected LED lights GREEN to indicate that the computer attached

to the corresponding port is the one that has the KVM focus. The LED is steady under normal conditions, but flashes when its port is accessed under Auto Scan Mode (see page 33).

 When the ACS1216 is first powered on, the On Line and Selected

LEDs blink one after the other as the Switch performs a self-test.

2. Reset Switch

3. Power LED

Lights to indicate that the ACS1216 is powered up and ready to operate.

4. Station ID LED

The ACS1216's Station ID is displayed here. If this is a Single Station installation (see page 9), or the First Station on a Daisy Chained

installation (see page 10), the ACS1216 has a Station ID of 01. On a Daisy Chained installation, the ACS1216 auto-senses its position and

displays the Station ID that corresponds to its place in the chain. (see Port ID Numbering, page 14 for details).
