Dual user configuration
You can combine two Adder X50 extender sets to create a dual
user configuration. Such an installation would allow a single
computer to be controlled from two different positions, with each
position receiving the same audio visual output and having equal
and concurrent control over the computer. Arbitration between the
two positions is handled by the computer’s USB system and so this
arrangement is better suited to situations where two users would
not often require simultaneous access.

First local module
Most of the connections are similar to the standard configuration. The main
difference is in the links to the second local module. Use an audio link lead to
connect the audio out socket of the first local module to the audio in socket of
the second. Similarly, use a video link lead to connect the video out and video
in ports. The second local module then requires its own USB link directly to the
computer. In all other respects follow the standard instructions to connect CATx
links and all of the remote module connections.
