IMPORTANT: When supplied, AdderView CATx units have their security features disabled, which means that any attached users have access to all connected computers and all AdderView CATx settings. You are strongly recommended to enable the ‘Security’ feature and set an access password for the ADMIN account.

To access the configuration menu (global users)

Once the IP settings have been made (and the AdderView CATx IP unit is network connected), global users can access the configuration menu using a different method.

1Use either the VNC viewer or a standard web browser to make remote contact with the AdderView CATx IP – see Global user access for more details.

2If the username entry is not blanked out, enter ‘admin’ or another

login username. Then enter the admin password (if no password is set, then just press ). Once logged in, the AdderView CATx IP will show the video output from the host system (if one is connected), or otherwise a ‘No Signal’ message.

3Click the ‘Controls’ button and select the ‘KVM Switch menu’ option. All options appropriate to the entered username will be displayed.
