Chapter 12. RS-232 Port Operation

SP

This command is used to switch the KVM focus to a particular port. The generic format of this command is:

SP XX YY ZZ

Where:

ŠXX is a two-digit number that represents the console port number on the KM0532 / KM0932 that the Console Module you wish to access connects to.

ŠYY represents either a KVM port number on the KM0532 / KM0932 that the Console Module connects to; or the Station Number of a switch daisy chained from the KM0532 / KM0932.

ŠZZ is a two-digit number that represents the port on the cascaded or daisy chained switch that you wish to give the focus to.

Example 1 – Single Stage Installation:

To put the KVM focus of the session running on Console Module 5 to KVM Port 18, issue the following command:

SP 05 18

This command switches the KVM focus of the session running on Console Port 5 from the port it is currently on to KVM Port 18.

After this command is issued, the display of the server connected to KVM Port 18 appears on Console 5’s monitor, and Console 5’s keyboard and mouse input goes to the server connected to KVM Port 18.

Example 2 – Two Level Cascaded Installation:

SP 02 03 08

This command switches the KVM focus of the session running on Console Port 2 from the port it is currently on to KVM Port 8 of the second level switch cascaded from KVM Port 3 of the first stage KM0532 / KM0932.

After this command is issued, the display of the server connected to KVM Port 8 of the switch cascaded from KVM Port 3 of the first stage KM0532 / KM0932 appears on Console 2’s monitor, and Console 2’s keyboard and mouse input goes to the server connected to KVM Port 08 of the switch cascaded from the first stage KM0532 / KM0932’s KVM Port 3.
