Using your Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch

Input and Navigation Features

Clicking on the Group, Computer Name, or ID column headers sorts the list box entries in ascending order, by the column header selected.

Double-clicking on a server (computer) line will select that server line and switch the console’s focus to the selected port. If the user is restricted from accessing the selected server, an error message will be displayed. When the error dialog is cleared, the console’s focus will remain on the previously selected port.

Pressing the up or down arrow keys, while the OSD is up, moves the server cursor (the row highlighted blue) up or down. If the cursor moves outside of the visible area, the list will scroll by one line. The scroll wheel on the mouse can also be used to perform this function.

The up/down double arrows, to the right of the server list, scroll the list up and down one page at a time. The “Page Up” and “Page Down” keys on the keyboard also perform this function.

Pressing the space bar will activate the OSD control in focus (same as clicking on the control). If the list box is in focus, then pressing the space bar gives the console control of the highlighted server.

Pressing “Enter” activates the control in focus if the control is on a button or inside an edit box, but if the focus is on another type of control (e.g. the list box), the “Enter” key activates the default control (Close or Exit, depending on the current OSD screen).

If the administrator presses “Ctrl + TAB” while viewing one of the “Setup” pages, the OSD goes to the next page.

Shortcut keys are enabled in the OSD. For example, pressing “ALT + X”, where X corresponds to the underlined character in a control’s label, activates that control.

When the OSD is up, keyboard and mouse inputs are routed to it; their signals are not sent directly to the server.

Selecting the “Close” button (or pressing “ALT + C”) on any of the “Setup” pages will return the user to the “Main” page.

The “TAB” key can be used to cycle through the controls on the current OSD page. The “Shift+TAB” key will cycle backwards.

The OSD window can be repositioned by clicking on the title bar and dragging the window with the mouse.

To reposition the banner, press and hold “Ctrl + Alt” while the OSD is up, and the cursor will jump from the OSD window to the banner. Clicking and dragging the mouse will allow the user to reposition the banner.

The Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch maintains the position settings of the OSD and banner for multiple server video resolutions. The user should set the positions of the OSD and banner windows during the Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch setup to make the locations identical for all video resolutions.

NOTE: The OSD does not turn off by itself. To reduce the risk of burning the OSD on the monitor, turn off the monitor or set the Rack-Mount Console KVM Switch to AutoScan Mode. All features configured in the “Setup” pages are global (affect all consoles) unless otherwise noted.
