Overview

The Master View CS-82A 4 Port KVM (Keyboard, Video,

Mouse), Switch is a control unit that allows access to two

computers from a single console (keyboard, monitor and

mouse). 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 Master View CS-82A, you can easily access two

computers in a cost effective manner.

Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate

ports is all that is entailed. There is no software to configure;

there are no installation routines, and no incompatibility

problems. Since the Master View CS-82A intercepts keyboard

input directly, it works on any hardware platform and with all

operating systems.

The Master View CS-82A provides two convenient methods to

access the computers connected to the system: 1) push button

Port Selection Switches located on the unit’s front panel; and 2)

Hotkey combinations entered from the keyboard.

There is no better way to save time and money than with a

Master View CS-82A installation. Since a single console

manages all of the computers, the CS-82A setup: 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 around from one computer to

another.

*See the note under Cables in the next section.

Cables

Use of substandard cables may damage the connected devices or

degrade overall performance. For optimum signal integrity and to

simplify the layout, we strongly recommend that you use ATEN

high quality CS Custom Cable sets: 2L-1001P/C (1.8 m) and

2L-1003P/C (3 m).

Note: 1. If your computer uses a standard AT style keyboard

socket you will need to purchase a PS/2-to-AT

keyboard adapter (Part No. 2A-106, or any standard

keyboard adapter).

2. The CS-82A does not support serial mice.

Introduction

Front View

1. Port Selection Switches

Press a switch to access the computer attached to the

corresponding port.

2. Port LEDs:

The Port LEDs are built into the Port Selection Switches.

The upper ones are the On Line LEDs; the lower ones are

the Selected Port LEDs:

MThe On Line LEDs lights ORANGE to indicate that the

computer attached to the corresponding port is up and

running.

MThe Selected LED lights GREEN to indicate that the

computer attached to its corresponding port is the one

that has the KVM focus. Depending on the port’s status,

the LED may flash according to a specific pattern (see the

LED Display table in the Appendix for details).

3. Console Keyboard and Mouse Ports

The cables from your keyboard and mouse plug in here.

Each port is identified by an appropriate icon.

Rear View

1. Console Video Connector

The cable from your monitor plugs in here.

2. CPU Port Connectors

The KVM cables that connect to the computer’s monitor,

keyboard and mouse ports plug in here. Each port is

identified by an appropriate icon.

Note: 1. In order to have the console’s keyboard and mouse

control notebook computers that only have one

PS/2 port, you can use a two PS/2 port to USB

adapter, such as the ATEN UC-100KM. Simply

plug the KVM cable’s keyboard and mouse

connectors into the adapter, then plug the adapter

into the computer’s USB port.

2. Ordinary PS/2 to USB changers commonly sold in

computer shops will not work with the CS-82A.

Installation

Refer to the diagram on the next page as you perform the

following steps:

1. Plug the monitor, keyboard, and mouse into the Console

port connectors of the Master View CS-82A unit. Each port

is labeled with an appropriate icon to indicate itself.

2. Use KVM cables (see the Hardware Requirements section),

to connect the keyboard, monitor, and mouse ports from any

available CPU Port (1 - 2), to the keyboard, monitor, and

mouse ports of the computers you are connecting up (see

the diagram on p. 7).

Note: If your computers use AT style connectors for the

keyboard, and/or standard serial connectors for the

mouse, refer back to the note in the Cables section

on p. 3.

3. If you choose to use external power (optional) plug the

power adapter into an external AC source; plug the power

adapter cable into the unit s power jack as shown in the

diagram on p. 7.

4. Turn on the power to the connected computers.

Note: The CS-82A’s Power On default is to link to the first

computer you turn on.

- 6 -

1. Before you begin, make sure that power to all the

devices you will be connecting up have been

turned off. You must unplug the power cords of

any computers that have the Keyboard Power On

function. Otherwise, the switch will receive power

from the computer.

2. To prevent damage to your installation due to ground

potential difference, make sure that all devices on

the installation are properly grounded. Consult your

dealer for technical details, if necessary.
