SE, use the MASTER bank setting. If the OmniView™SE you are using will be daisy-chained off another unit, use a unique slave setting. Please refer to the next section for more information regarding multiple OmniView™SE units.

PLEASE FOLLOW THIS INSTALLATION PROCEDURE EXACTLY. NOT DOING SO MAY RESULT IN KEYBOARD AND/OR MOUSE ERRORS, OR FAULTY OPERATION.

WARNING: Before attempting to connect anything to the OmniView™SE or the computers, make sure everything is powered off. Plugging and unplugging cables may cause irreversible damage to your computers and the OmniView
