CHAPTER 4: Configuration

If you want to remove the password after setting one, get into configuration mode, type the letter “P”, and press the [Enter] key as before, but then press [Enter] again without typing in any other characters. (If you try to lock the Extender before you’ve set a password, or after you’ve removed the password, the Extender will still blank the video, but it won’t prevent anyone from accessing the CPU.)

4.5 Resetting the Extender to Its Factory-Default Configuration

If you want to set all of the ServSwitch Wizard Extender’s keyboard-controlled configuration options back to their factory defaults, first go into configuration mode, then issue the [F] [8] [Enter] command. (“[F] [8]” is the letter “F” followed by the number “8”, not the [F8] function key.) This will also clear any password you’ve set, but it will have no effect on the Extender’s video compensation, nor will it change any settings controlled with the Extender’s DIP switches.
