5.13.7 Multi-Screen Control
This menu configures the USB-HID switching operation, allowing a CON
Device with several monitors to control several connected sources
(computers, CPUs). Smooth switching can be performed for up to eight
connected sources by dragging the mouse pointer beyond the respective
monitor to an adjacent one.
Monitors can be arranged side-by-side, in a grid layout or completely free.
When using sources (computers, CPUs) in multi-head operation (e.g.
dual-head), the configuration must be executed via Java Tool to carry out
the extended configuration options (from firmware V03.08).
A Multi-Head configuration for Apple Mac sources is not supported due to
limitations of the macOS.
When using CON Units with the possibility to connect a local source
(computer, CPU) in a Multi-Screen Control environment, the local
switching will be disabled.
In order to enable Multi-Screen Control, all Extender Units assigned to the
related CON Device, must be physically connected to the same block of
8 ports on the I/O board of the matrix.
When configuring Multi-Screen Control via OSD, the number of supported
monitors is limited to four. This limitation also applies to the use of older
hardware.
CON Units that have been already configured for Multi-Screen Control can
be connected together to other blocks of 8 ports. In this case any further
configuration is not necessary, their functionality will remain as set
previously.
You have the following options to access the menu:
