Rack mounting
The Vista switch is designed to mount in a CPU rack or under a desktop.
Rackmount kits are available in three different sizes, 19", 23", and 24".
Each is 1 rack unit high (1.75").
(See Appendix D and Appendix E for rack mounting instructions.)
Your Vista switch is now ready for operation using the initial factory
settings. Pressing the numbered buttons (1-2 or 1-4) on the front panel will
switch to that port. To take full advantage of the Vista features, refer to the
operating instructions for detailed information about each of the Vista
commands. The keyboard commands are summarized in Table 5.
To begin switching immediately from the keyboard, press and release the
left control <Ctrl> key, then type in the computer number (1-2 or 1-4). The
video from the connected computer will display on the KVM’s video
monitor and you will have full control of that computer.
The keyboard, video monitor, and mouse signals can be driven up to
1,000 feet using our CrystalView KVM extenders. This arrangement is
ideal for use in hazardous areas where the computers need to be located
away from the users.
