APC AP9254 Switch User Manual


 
Your APC KVM Switch may be operated in a non-secure (no password
required) or secure (password required) mode. All units ship defaulted
to the non-secure mode. For information on implementing password
security see the “Administrator Functions” section of Chapter 4.
Computers may be powered-up one-at-a-time or all at once. No operator
intervention is required during booting. As the system stabilizes, an
amber LED over each channel will illuminate, indicating that the
attached computer is powered on. A green LED will light at the active
computer. A computer may now be selected via the on-screen display
menu or, if you are in non-secure mode, channel push-buttons, the Scan
button or keyboard hot-key sequence.
The Scan push-button has a green LED over it. Press the button
momentarily to switch to the next computer in sequence. Press and hold
the button for one second to initiate channel scanning. The green LED
will light while you are in scan mode.
There are two status LEDs. The red LED lights if an internal failure
occurs. The green LED will blink for several seconds during power-up
while the system performs a self-diagnostic. After initialization, the
green LED remains lit during normal operation and blinks only when
you are in Command Mode.
