Network Technologies ST-xU operation manual Installation, Dip-switch configuration

NTI NODEMUX SERIES UNIVERSAL KVM SWITCH

INSTALLATION

1.Turn OFF power to all CPUs that will be connected to the NODEMUX before connecting or disconnecting any cables to or from them.

!WARNING! DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE CPU IF POWER IS NOT DISCONNECTED BEFORE CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING CABLES.

2.Configure the dip-switches for the type of keyboard and mouse being used (see Fig. 3). The dip-switches on the front panel must be configured for the platform of the keyboard/mouse that will be used to operate the NODEMUX. This action must be completed prior to powering up the ST-xU.

Note: Dipswitches are only present on legacy NODEMUXs. If none are present, keyboard and mouse type are configured automatically Just make keyboard and mouse connections as described in step 5 (page 6). If no keyboard and/or adapter is connected, the default switch configuration supports a PS/2 keyboard and mouse.
