10 DSR1024 Switch Installer/User Guide
Verifying the Connections
DSR switch
The front panel of the DSR1024 switch features two LEDs indicating the Ethernet connection. The
top green LED is the Link indicator. It will illuminate when a valid connection to the network is
established and blink when there is activity on the port. The lower amber LED, labeled 100M, will
indicate that you are communicating at the 100 Mbps rate when using an Ethernet connection.
Additionally, there are two LEDs on the front of your DSR1024 switch to indicate the target
device status: one green and one amber. The green LED will illuminate when the attached target
device has a digital session active. The amber LED will illuminate when that port is selected.
DSRIQ modules
PS/2, Sun and USB DSRIQ modules are available for attaching computers to your DSR switch.
The DSRIQ-SRL serial module is used to connect serial devices to your DSR switch and features
two green LEDs: a POWER LED and a STATUS LED. The POWER LED indicates that the
attached DSRIQ-SRL is powered. The STATUS LED indicates that a valid selection has been made
to a DSR switch. The DSRIQ-SRL module prevents a serial break from the attached device if the
module loses power. However, a user can generate a serial break with the attached device by
pressing
Alt-B after accessing the Terminal Applications menu.

Adjusting mouse settings on target devices
Before a computer connected to the DSR1024 switch may be used for remote user control, you
must set the target mouse speed and turn off acceleration. For machines running Microsoft
®
Windows
®
(Windows NT
®
, 2000, XP, Server 2003), use the default PS/2 mouse driver.
NOTE: For the various versions of Windows, mouse motion and acceleration are set in different places within the
Mouse Control Panel applet. If you don’t find the motion or acceleration options as described in the following
procedures, check the other tabs on the Mouse Control Panel applet.
To adjust mouse settings on Windows NT (using default drivers):
1. From the Desktop, select Start - Settings - Control Panel - Mouse. The Mouse Properties
dialog box will appear.
2. Click on the Motion tab.
3. Set the Pointer speed to Slow. This will also need to be done for any NT user account that will
be accessing the NT system through the DSR1024 switch.
4. Set Acceleration to None for mouse sync.
