Switching using the serial port
From any RS232 port on any switch, you can switch any KVM station in the system to any computer. Connect a
serial cable to the RS232 port on any UltraMatrix and to the COM port on the standalone computer. Start a
communication program like HyperTerminal and connect to the UltraMatrix by clicking on the “Call” ICON.
The input format to switch a KVM station to a computer is KnnnCxxxxS [Enter] where nnn is the KVM number of the
card desired (1 – 255) and xxxx is the computer number to switch to (1 – 1000). For example, you want to switch the
KVM station on CPU card #4 to computer #50; the command would be K4C50S [Enter]. The KVM station connected
on CPU card #4 would be switched to computer #50. The response on the screen would be K4C50Rx, where x is
one of the following status values
