Using the Switch from a Local Console

Selecting a Server Using Port Selectors

You can directly select which server you wish to control by pressing the port selector next to the corresponding port. The LED will illuminate to indicate the port is currently selected. If you are installing multiple KVM Switches that are daisy-chained, use the BANK scroll keys located on the front panel of the primary KVM Switch to access other servers that are connected to the secondary KVM Switches.

Selecting a BANK Using Scroll Buttons

Pressing the “BANK +” and “BANK –” scroll buttons on the primary KVM Switch will allow you to switch between the daisy-chained Switches. Pressing both buttons simultaneously will reset the Switch.

The “BANK +” button will take you to the next BANK. For example, when you are at the primary switch (BANK 00) and want to check servers on BANK 02, pressing the “BANK +” button will take you to BANK 02. As a default, the first active server will be displayed on the console monitor. Use the port selectors to go to the desired server on BANK 02.

The “BANK –” button will take you to the previous BANK (for example, when you are at BANK 02 and want to check servers in BANK 01). Pressing the “BANK –” button will take you to BANK 01. As a default, the first active server will be displayed on the console monitor. Use the port selectors to go to the desired server on BANK 01.
