TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM:

Keyboard Errors

 

SOLUTION:

Check cable connections on each CPU and the switch.

PROBLEM:

No Video

 

SOLUTION:

Check cable connections on each CPU and the switch. Verify that keyboard and video connect from each CPU

 

to matching ports. After reconnecting, CPU may need to be re-booted in order to sense the monitor connection.

PROBLEM:

No OSD

 

SOLUTION:

The administrator may have configured the unit as a slave instead of stand-alone switch. OSD will not work

 

when a NODEMUX is configured as a slave.

To reconfigure the switch to a stand-alone configuration, see

 

RS232 Control , "CF" command on page 20.

 

 

BE SURE TO READ WARNING BEFORE USING THIS COMMAND.

PROBLEM:

No Keyboard or Mouse

 

SOLUTION:

Shut down CPU's. Power cycle the switch.

Turn on CPU's.
