USING YOUR KVM SWITCH

•The shift LED display indicates that ports 9–16 are selected (not applicable to this KVM Switch in standalone mode)

•The Console LED display will be lit, indicating that this KVM Switch is a Console

•BANK-selection buttons will have no function because there is only one BANK in this configuration

1.Press the direct-access port selector corresponding to the port that you want. When you release the button, the KVM Switch will beep and switch the focus to the selected port. If you don’t have permission to access the selected port, the KVM Switch will beep, switch focus away from the selected port, and the 7-segment LED display will indicate “AF” (Access Failure).

2.If you press the AutoScan button, the KVM Switch will beep and switch into AutoScan mode.

Note: For a standalone KVM Switch to function as described in this section, the BANK address must be set to 00 and the “Daisy-Chain this KVM” box must be cleared. Otherwise, the KVM Switch will function, but it will react like a daisy-chained KVM Switch.

Daisy-Chain Configuration

•The 7-segment display of a Secondary Switch will always display its

BANK ID

•All buttons and LED displays on Secondary Switches will be disabled

Static Mode (Not in Use)

•The 7-segment LEDs will display the current BANK ID

•The port and shift LEDs will be off

•The Console LED will be lit, indicating that this KVM Switch is a Primary Switch (Console attached)

1.To switch out of Static mode, press any button (except AutoScan) on the front panel of the Console. When you release the button, the KVM will switch into Select mode. The KVM Switch will not beep to indicate the transition from Static to Select mode, but the port-selection LEDs and the 7-segment LEDs will change to indicate the transition.

USING YOUR KVM SWITCH

2.If the AutoScan button is pressed, the KVM Switch will beep and enter AutoScan mode.

Select Mode: Selecting a Server Using the Direct-Access Port Selectors

Note the following:

•Select mode will revert to Static mode after five seconds of inactivity.

•The 7-segment LEDs will always display the ID of the BANK in focus.

•One port LED will be lit, corresponding with the port in focus on the BANK in focus.

•The shift LED will light up whenever ports 9–16 are selected. To use an 8-Port KVM Switch to select ports 9–16 on a 16-Port KVM Switch, hold down the corresponding button for one second (the shift LED will light), then release it. For example, to select the computer attached to port 9, from Select mode, press the button for port 1, and hold it for one second before releasing it. The KVM Switch will beep and both the port 1 LED and shift LED will light.

•The Console LED will be lit, indicating that this KVM Switch is a Console.

1.Press the BANK selection buttons to cycle through the available BANKs. The “BANK +” button will take you to the next available BANK, the “BANK –” button will take you to the previous available BANK. For example, when you are at BANK 02 and you want to check a server on BANK 01, pressing the “BANK –” button will take you to BANK 01. The change in BANK is immediately indicated by the 7-segment LEDs.

2.Press the direct-access port selectors to go to the desired server on BANK 01. When you release the button, the KVM Switch will beep and switch the focus to the selected port. If the user does not have permission to access the selected port, the KVM Switch will beep, switch focus away from the selected port, and the 7-segment LED will indicate “AF” (Access Failure).
