8. Next, select “Expansion width” from the configure system menu
and press enter. Enter the number of computer ports on a
slave unit and press enter. This setting determines how many
computers are on an expansion unit and determines which
computer number is associated with which physical connector.
If all expansion units have an equal number of ports, enter the
number of ports on one expansion unit for the width number. If
there are mixed expansion units with a different number of
ports, the width value should be the number of computer ports
that is on the expansion unit that has the most computer ports.
Care should be taken when mixing slave units. For example, if
your system consists of an 8-port master, two 8-port slaves and
a one 4-port slave, and you program the expansion width to 8,
there will be 4 blind ports on the 4-port unit. If you program the
expansion width to 4, then only computers 1-4 on the 8-port
slave units can be accessed.
9. Finally, select “Expansion units” and press enter. Enter the
total number of slave units in the system and press enter. This
command configures how may slave units are connected to the
master unit.
