Introduction
Overview
The CS1798 / CS17916 8/16-port USB HDMI KVM Switch is a multi-purpose
appliance that consolidates access and control of up to 8/16 HDMI computers
from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse, and monitor console. The CS1798
/ CS17916 can be cascaded up to three levels – to control up to 512 computers
(CS1798); or two levels – up to 256 computers (CS17916) – all from a single
console.
In addition the CS1798 / CS17916 features multi-display functionality, which
enables the use of standard USB cables to stack up to eight switches in a multi-
display installation where each computer is fitted with multiple video cards.
Furthermore, the CS1798 / CS17916 comes with ATEN’s Video DynaSync
TM
technology, which optimizes display resolution.
There are three convenient methods to access any computer connected to the
installation: (1) using the pushbutton port selection switches located on each
unit's front panel; (2) entering Hotkey combinations from the keyboard; and (3)
selecting from menus provided by the on-screen display (OSD). An Auto Scan
feature also permits automatic scanning and monitoring of all computers on the
installation, one by one.
The CS1798 / CS17916 provides multimedia keyboard support and is audio
enabled. You can listen to the audio output of each computer on two sets of
speakers (on a one at- a-time basis).
Setup is fast and easy; simply plug cables into their appropriate ports. There is
no software to configure, no installation routines, and no incompatibility
problems. Since the CS1798 / CS17916 intercepts keyboard input directly, it
works on multiple operating platforms (PC compatible, Mac*, Sun*, etc.).
Since a single console manages all of the computers on your installation, a
CS1798 / CS17916 KVM switch setup: (1) eliminates the expense of having to
purchase a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each computer; (2) saves
all the space extra components take up; (3) saves on energy costs; and (4)
eliminates the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving
from one computer to another.
Note: 1. The CS1798 / CS17916 offers two types of installation – 1)
standalone/cascade; and 2) multi-display – that require different
CS1798 / CS17916 User Manual
2
cabling setups. Therefore, the functions of both types are not
available in one installation.
2. For PC compatible computers. Mac and Sun computers must use the
USB cable connections (see Cables, page 6).

Two Stage Cascade
To control even more computers, additional CS1798 / CS17916 units can be
cascaded from the KVM ports of the First Stage unit. The cascaded CS1798 /
CS17916s that connect back to the First Stage unit are considered Second Stage
units. As many as 64 (CS1798) or 256 (CS17916) computers can be controlled
in a complete two stage installation. A table showing the relation between the
number of computers and the number of units needed to control them is
provided on page 73.
To set up a two stage installation, refer to the Two Stage Installation diagram
on the next page as you do the following:

Multi-display Installation
The CS1798 / CS17916’s multi-display feature allows you to stack two, three,
four, or up to 8 units in a dual/triple/quad-display/multi-display installation to
control up to seven (CS1798) or fifteen (CS17916) computers at once. This
installation requires slightly different cabling than the standard cascade and
offers an extra level of switching flexibility for multiple-monitor installations
where each computer is fitted with multiple video cards.
Note: In a Multi-display installation, the CS1798 can only be connected to
CS1798 units, and the CS17916 can only be connected to CS17916
units.
Cable Connections for Multi-display Installation
To set up your multi-display installation, refer to the installation diagram on the
next page (the numbers in the diagrams correspond to the steps, below), and do
the following:
1. Use a standard USB Type A-to-USB Type B cable to connect the Port 8
USB Type B port on the first stage unit to the USB Type A port in the
Console section of the second switch.
Note: Port 8 is reserved to connect the units in a multi-display installation,
so up to seven (CS1798) or fifteen (CS17916) computers can be
attached, using KVM ports 1–7 (CS1798) or ports 1–7/9–16
(CS17916) .
2. Use HDMI cables to connect the HDMI KVM port on the second CS1798
/ CS17916 unit to the second video-in port on the computers.
Note: Only HDMI video cables are necessary – the other ports in the KVM
section are not required in this installation.
3. Connect a display to the console section of the second switch.
4. Repeat steps 1–3 for any additional units, up to a total of 8 switches.
5. Connect the cables for the first switch. See Single Stage Installation,
page 19 for full details. All video, audio and peripheral devices must be
connected to the first switch.
6. Power up the CS1798 / CS17916 units, starting with the first switch, and
then power on the computers.

Grouping Ports into “Vertical” Channels
Once the cables have been connected and multi-display mode has been selected
in the OSD, the CS1798 / CS17916 auto-detects the channels and displaying
modes.Users can then assign them a channel number as the port name (the
channels are represented by the vertical columns in the diagram below). So, all
the Port 1s become Channel 1, all the Port 2s become Channel 2, ... , and all the
Port 7s become Channel 7. The ports will all be switched at the same time,
channel by channel.
Depending on the number of stages in your stack, a CS1798 / CS17916
installation offers dual display (two stages), triple display (three stages), quad
display (four stages) or multi-display (up to 8 stages) scenarios. For reference
purposes, the example shows a four-stage installation with quad display
functionality.
Note: Only one HDMI video signal can be displayed at a time, depending on
the configuration of the CS1798 / CS17916 unit on the first switch.

Basic Operation
Hot Plugging
The CS1798 / CS17916 supports hot plugging – components can be removed
and added back into the installation by unplugging their cables from the ports
without the need to shut the unit down. In order for hot plugging to work
properly, the procedures described below must be followed:
Hot Plugging KVM Ports
In order for the OSD menus to correspond to KVM port changes, you must
manually reconfigure the OSD to reflect the new port information. See the F3
SET (page 39) and F4 ADM (page 41), functions for details.
Note: If the computer's operating system does not support hot plugging, this
function may not work properly.
Hot Plugging Console Ports
The keyboard, monitor, and mouse can all be hot plugged. When hot plugging
the mouse:
You may unplug and replug the mouse (to reset the mouse, for example),
as long as you use the same mouse.
If you plug in a different mouse, all the computers on the installation must
be shut down for 10 seconds, then restarted following the power up
sequence described under Steps 6, 7, and 8 under Two Stage Cascade,
page 21
Note: If, after hot plugging there is no response to keyboard and/or mouse
input, perform a Keyboard and Mouse Reset by simultaneously
pressing the 7 and 8 (CS1798) or 15 and 16 (CS17916) front panel
pushbuttons.

OSD Main Screen
When you invoke the OSD, a screen similar to the one below appears:
Note: 1. The diagram depicts the administrator's main screen. The user main
screen does not show the F4 and F6 functions, since these are
reserved for the administrator and can't be accessed by users.
2. The OSD always starts in list view, with the highlight bar at the same
position it was in the last time it was closed.
3. Only the ports that have been set accessible by the administrator for
the current logged in user are visible (see SET ACCESSIBLE PORTS,
page 41).
4. If the port list is collapsed, click on a switch number, or move the
highlight bar to it then press the right arrow key to expand the list.
Similarly, to collapse a switch’s port list, click on the switch number,
or move the highlight bar to it then press the left arrow key to collapse
the list.
OSD Main Screen Headings
PN This column lists the port ID numbers for all the KVM ports on the
installation. The simplest method to access a particular computer is
move the highlight bar to it, then press Enter.
QV If a port has selected for quick view scanning (see SET QUICK VIEW
PORTS, page 43), an arrowhead displays in this column.
The computers that are powered on and are online have a sun symbol
in this column.
NAME If a port has been given a name (see EDIT PORT NAMES, page 42), its
name appears in this column.
