Perform the following installation steps for each computer that will be connected to the UltraMatrix. Sequentially connect the computers starting with computer #1.

STEPS: (See Figure 3 for an example of a single Unit installation) (Refer to the troubleshooting section for help if needed)

1.Connect all KVM stations to the UltraMatrix switches DB25F, KVM connectors using the appropriate KVM cables.

2.Turn on all KVM stations video monitors and the UltraMatrix. (Wait for the internal diagnostic check to complete and fade out)

3.Switch KVM station #1 to the CPU port being configured (starting with CPU port #1). This is done by pressing and releasing the left control [Ctrl] key and within 2 seconds, type in the CPU port # being configured (starting with port 1) and press [Enter]. A connection dialog box will display showing the connection status. (Figure 18)

4.Pre-configure the CPU port, if needed, as outlined in steps 4a-f if the computer being connected does not use a PC2 type keyboard or a PS/2 mouse (defaults). Pre-configure the CPU port before connecting the computer. If the computer uses a PC2 type keyboard and PS/2 mouse, connect it to the corresponding CPU port. No pre-configuration is needed.

Pre-Configuration procedure

a.Call up the Configuration menu system by pressing and releasing the left [Ctrl] key, then the [F12] key. (Figure 7)

e.Press [ESC] to return to the “Main menu” and save the changes.

f.Connect the computer to the pre-configured CPU port.

5.Boot the computer the KVM station is connected to if the computer power was off. You should see the boot up sequence on the KVM monitor. If the computer was connected to a pre-configured CPU port with power applied, you should see that computers video.

6.Verify that the keyboard, video, and mouse on the connected computer function properly before proceeding. Verify that other KVM stations operate properly.

7.Switch KVM station #1 to the next sequential CPU port as explained in step 3 and perform steps 4-6 for that computer and for the remaining computers.
