Overview

The Master View CS-82A 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

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; no

installation routines; and no incompatibility problems. Since the

CS-82A intercepts keyboard input directly, it works on all

hardware platforms and 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 both of the computers, a CS-82A setup: 1) eliminates

the expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard,

monitor, and mouse for each computer; 2) saves 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.

*Mac and Sun systems may require additional equipment. See

p. 5 for details.
