Multiplicity must be installed on a 'Primary' computer that has a connected keyboard, mouse and monitor that will be used to control other 'Secondary' Multiplicity computers. Primary With Multiplicity, the controlling PC is the ‘Primary' and its connected keyboard and mouse will control it and its connected 'Secondary’ PCs. Primary and Secondary designations are selected by the user during the initial configuration process. They can, however, be changed at anytime thereafter.
