Connection
Before connecting a device (a computer or a Slave) to the Master
under power, you must turn off the device. The Master must have
equal or more 'PC x' ports than that of the Slave, i.e., if KNV108 is
the master, KNV108 and KNV104 can be Slaves, but KNV116D can
not.

The ports labeled "PC 1"~”PC 8” can be connected to either a
computer or a Slave's CONSOLE port, as shown in figure 10. The
ports “PC A"~”PC H” can only be connected to a computer. A
power adapter with DC 9V/500mA output rating must be connected
to the Master.

The maximum number of computers controlled by a master/slave
configuration with all KNV104s is 16 with 4 Slaves and each Slave
connects to 4 computers, see figure 11. For an all KNV108s
configuration, the number is 64 with 8 Slaves and each Slave
connects to 8 computers, see figure 12. For an all KNV116D
configuration, the number is 136, see figure 13. The Master
KNV116D connects to 8 Slaves and 8 computers, and each Slave
connects to 16 computers.
