You can expand a computer's or a console's switchable signals either through port
grouping or stacking.

Stacking:
In Stacking mode, you can switch multiple matrix switches at the same

In the Config Panel web application, you can assign up to seven additional video chan-
nels and a USB or RS232 channel to a computer's or a console's KVM channel.
Assigning multiple ports to a console or computer creates a multichannel configuration.
NOTE:
The OSD does not show any user or computer modules that you added as
additional channels to the multichannel configuration.
