Hot Plugging
The MiniView™ Ultra supports hot plugging, which means that components can be
removed and added back into the installation by unplugging their cables from the CPU
ports without shutting the unit down. There are certain procedures that must be followed
in order for hot plugging to work properly:
• Hot Plugging CPU Ports:
1. The cable must be plugged back into the same port from which it was removed.
2. The mouse cable must be plugged in before the keyboard cable.
3. After plugging the cable back in, you must perform a KVM Reset on the First Stage
unit (by pressing the Reset switch).
• Hot Plugging Console Ports:
1. You may unplug the mouse and plug it back in again (to reset the mouse, for
example), as long as you use the same mouse.
2. If you plug in a different mouse, all the stations and all the computers on the
installation must be shut down for 10 seconds, then restarted.
Note: All MiniView™ units must be plugged in and receiving power prior to turning on
the power to the PCs. Press Port Selection Buttons 1 and 2 on the Level 1 unit
simultaneously for three seconds to perform a keyboard and mouse reset, if
necessary.
