NTI NODEMUX SERIES UNIVERSAL KVM SWITCH
18
Note: After configuring an NODEMUX as a slave unit, when the power is cycled the slave NODEMUX will only be
controllable through the master NODEMUX it is connected to. Direct OSD menu control of the slave unit will no longer
be possible.
In the event the setting is changed by mistake to "slave unit", to change it back to a "stand alone" switch, factory default
settings must be restored via a terminal connected to the RS232 control port. See RS232 Control on page 26 for how to
restore default settings.
For more on configuring RS232 control, see "RS232 Control" on page 27.
Exit Switch Configuration Mode
Once changes are made to the Switch Configuration menu, press <Enter> and <Y> to save them.
To exit without saving, press <Esc>, then <N>, then <Esc> again. The menu will return to the Administration Mode without
saving the changes made.
Changes made will take effect the next time the NODEMUX is power cycled.
To continue setting up a cascaded system of switches, see "Cascaded Installation" on page 10.
Administrator Password
To change the administrator password press <C> from the
Administration Mode menu.
The administrator is able to change the administrator
password as needed (see Fig. 21). Two edit fields are
available, one for password, the other for verify password.
The password can be up to 13 characters in length.
Note: The default password for the administrator is
ADMINISTRATOR.
