Rose electronic switch/hub manual Rack mounting, Vista to CrystalView

Rack mounting

The Vista switch is designed to mount in a CPU rack or under a desktop. Rackmount kits are available in three different sizes, 19", 23", and 24". Each is 1 rack unit high (1.75").

(See Appendix D and Appendix E for rack mounting instructions.)

Your Vista switch is now ready for operation using the initial factory settings. Pressing the numbered buttons (1-2 or 1-4) on the front panel will switch to that port. To take full advantage of the Vista features, refer to the operating instructions for detailed information about each of the Vista commands. The keyboard commands are summarized in Table 5.

To begin switching immediately from the keyboard, press and release the left control <Ctrl> key, then type in the computer number (1-2 or 1-4). The video from the connected computer will display on the KVM’s video monitor and you will have full control of that computer.

The keyboard, video monitor, and mouse signals can be driven up to 1,000 feet using our CrystalViewä KVM extenders. This arrangement is ideal for use in hazardous areas where the computers need to be located away from the users.
