 Dual-Head Ports, Quad-Head Ports, Single-Head/USB 2.0 Ports and Triple-Head/USB
2.0 Ports are always switched in parallel.
 Only odd Port numbers (#01, 03, 05, etc.) may be configured as Dual-Head Ports or
Single-Head/USB 2.0 Ports.
 Only every fourth Port (#01, 05, 09, etc.) may be configured as Quad-Head Port or
Triple-Head/USB 2.0 Port.
 Only the first CON-Port can be switched by Hotkeys, all other Ports behave like Slaves.
 If you switch from a Multi-Head CPU-Port to a differently configured CPU Port, one or
more monitors may remain dark.
 If the user switches from a Quad-Head Console to a Single-Head CPU Port, all other
three monitors will remain dark.
 If the user switches from a Quad-Head Console to a Dual-Head CPU Port, the last two
monitors will remain dark.
 If the user at a Triple-Head/USB 2.0 Console switches to a Single-Head/USB 2.0 CPU
Port, two monitors will remain and the USB-Port remains inactive.
 If the user at a Single-Head/USB 2.0 Console switches to a Single-Head CPU Port with
a subsequent USB 2.0 CPU Port, the USB Port still remains inactive.
