Note! Picture quality is relative to distance. The further away a remote computer is from the SmartRack 116 IP, the lower the image quality, and the more tuning needed. So place the higher resolution computers closer to the manager unit.

24.1.13 Moving the label – F6

Position the OSD label anywhere on the screen.

To position the label from the Main window:

1.Navigate to the desired computer using the Up and Down arrow keys.

Display Data Channel (DDC) is a VESA standard for communication between a monitor and a video adapter.

Input the DDC information of the monitor connected to the SmartRack 116 IP switch into the memories of all connected ROCs when first installing system.

To input the DDC information:

1.Press Shift twice to open the OSD.

2.Press F10. “Please wait” flashes a few times and disappears. The monitor’s DDC information is sent to all ROCs.
