Operations
Overview
Operating a target computer through the LongView IP KVM extender system is no different than
working directly connected to your target computer. All peripherals operate as if directly
connected, even though the target computer is located at a distance.
While the LongView IP KVM extender system default settings will work in most environments,
you may configure the settings to better fit your installation via the serial menu. You can also
upgrade the LongView IP KVM extender system via the serial menu. See
Flash Upgrading your
LongView IP KVM Extender System on page 35 for more information.
LED identification
Front panel
There are two blue LEDs on the front panel of a user station. The PWR LED will light up when the
user station is turned on. The ACTIVE LED will blink slowly until the user station establishes a
connection with the transmitter. When a connection is established between the user station and
transmitter, the ACTIVE LED will stop blinking and will remain lit.
Rear panel
Two LEDs are built into the RJ-45 connectors on the user station and transmitter.
