Basic Operation

Opening the Console KVM

The console is located under the top cover. To access the con- sole, slide the console module out and raise the cover.

Note: As a safety precaution, to keep the console from accidentally sliding out, the console is locked into the In position. Before you can pull the console module out, you must release it by pushing the catches on the unit’s front panel toward the cen- ter of the switch.

Closing the Console KVM

To slide the console module back in, close the cover and do the following:

1.Pull the safety catches on the unit’s side rails toward you and push the module in until it stops.

2. Release the catches; pull the module slightly toward you; then push it all the way in.

Note: The reason for the two-step procedure is to minimize the chances of pinching your fingers when sliding the module in.
