Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port section on the CS1822 / CS1824 switch is assigned a port
number (respectively, 1 to 2 or 1 to 4). The port numbers are marked on the rear
panel of the switch (see page 7 for details).
The Port ID of a computer is derived from the KVM port number it is
connected to. For example, a computer connected to KVM port 2 has a Port ID
of 2.
The Port ID is used to specify which computer gets the KVM, USB peripheral,
and audio focus with the Hotkey port selection method (see page 19 for
details).
