SERVSELECT II™ INSTALLER/USER GUIDE

4.Basic Operations

4.1Controlling Your System at the Analog Ports

The ServSelect II features two analog port sets on the back of the unit that allow you to connect a monitor and a PS/2 keyboard and mouse for direct analog access. The appliance uses the OSD, which provides intuitive menus to configure your system and select computers.

4.2 Viewing and Selecting Ports and Servers

Use the OSD Main dialog box to view, configure and control servers in the ServSelect II system. View your servers by name, port or by the unique Electronic ID number (EID) embedded in each SAM. You will see an OSD-generated port list by default when you first launch the OSD. The Port column indicates the ARI port to which a server is connected.

To access the Main dialog box:

Press Print Screen to launch the OSD. The Main dialog box appears.
