17 Installation
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment, do
not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important
safety feature. Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily
accessible at all times. Disconnect the power from the unit by unplugging the
power cord from either the electrical outlet or the unit.
NOTE: If the building has 3-phase AV power, ensure that the computer and monitor
are on the same phase to avoid potential phase-related video and/or keyboard
problems.
NOTE: The maximum supported cable length from switch to device is 30 meters.
To install the Remote Console Switch hardware:
NOTE: The default username is “Admin.” There is no default password.
1 Connect a terminal or PC running the terminal emulation software to
the configuration port on the back panel of the Remote Console Switch
using the supplied serial cable. The terminal should be set to 9600 baud,
8 bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no flow control.
2 Plug the supplied power cord into the back of the Remote Console
Switch unit and then into an appropriate power source.
3 When the power is switched on, the Power indicator on the rear of the
unit will blink for 30 seconds while performing a self-test. Press the
<Enter> key to access the main menu.
