C) Setting/Changing Host Names
1). Select the host name to be set/changed using the cursor keys, exactly as if switching.
2). Press the <Tab> key.
3). The selected name turns yellow, with a single black on yellow character.
4). Use the keyboard to enter the desired name, then press the <Enter> key to confirm it.
Use the <Del> key to delete a single character, and the <BS> key to backspace.
Use the <Esc> key to cancel an unconfirmed name (revert to original name).
5). A host name may be up to 14-characters long.
6). Any of the following 47 characters may be used:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890,./[]:+*-+ and <Space>
Changing a master-side name Changing a slave-side name
(Single KVM setup has no blue area)
7). Pressing the Reset Switch with the <1> and <3> front switches also held down causes any set names to be
discarded and reverts the device to the factory defaults. This will occur even if the device is in normal
Console Mode (not Hot Key Mode).
Note that if the device is reset in this way, any names that were set are lost, and not recoverable.
