KL3116 / KL3116T User Manual

Single Stage Installation

In a single stage installation, there are no additional switches daisy chained down from the first unit. To set up a single level installation, refer to the installation diagrams beginning on page 15 (the numbers in the diagram correspond to the numbers of the installation steps) and do the following:

1.Ground the KL3116 / KL3116T. Use the grounding wire supplied with this package to connect the switch’s grounding terminal to a suitable grounded object.

Note: Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to the unit from surges or static electricity.

2.(Optional) Using the console cable set provided with this package, plug the custom SPHD connector into the Console Port on the rear panel of the switch. Connect the external console’s monitor and keyboard and mouse to the appropriate connectors on the other end of the console cable.

3.Using a KVM cable set (as described in the Cables section on page 4), plug the custom SPHD connector into any available KVM port on the switch.

Note: Ignore the Daisy Chain Port at this time. It is only used when daisy chaining additional switches. Daisy Chaining is described in the next section.

4.At the other end of the cable:

a)For a USB connection (see page 16), plug the USB and video cables into their respective ports on the computer.

b)For a PS/2 connection (see page 16), plug the keyboard, mouse and video cables into their respective ports on the computer.

Repeat steps 2 and 3 for any additional computers you are installing.

5.Connect the power cord to the switch and to an AC power source appropriate for the KL3116 / KL3116T.

6.Power on the switch.

7.Power on the computers.
