WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to
your equipment, do not disable the power cord grounding
feature. This equipment is designed to be connected to a
grounded (earthed) power outlet that is easily accessible to the
operator. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
4. Connect the power cord to the Keyboard/Monitor/Mouse Switch Box.
Initial Power-up
It is important that you power up the Keyboard/Monitor/Mouse Switch Box
first, then the computers. This is because when the servers boot up, their
drivers send device settings to the switch. These settings are then stored in the
switch NVRAM. Power-up the system as follows:
1.
Power up the switch by pressing the power switch located on the rear
panel to the on (1) position.
2.
Power up the computers.
Keyboard/Monitor/Mouse
Switch Box Startup Behavior
Power up the Keyboard/Monitor/Mouse Switch Box first. During startup, the
unit does the following:
■
Identifies the mouse and keyboard and puts them into default states.
■
Switches to port number 1 by default, and displays the number “1” in
the status flag displayed on the monitor. If the status flag default
setting has been changed to Names mode, the status flag displays the
port name instead of the port number. If a status flag is not being
shown on the monitor, make sure that it is connected and powered up.
