OPERATION
The Rackmount LCD Console KVM Switch allows you to select and monitor up to eight connected computers two ways: by simply
pressing corresponding buttons or by using a mouse or the touch pad to navigate through the on-screen display (which also provides
access to the majority of the control and configuration options).
Buttons
Using the buttons is quick and easy, as they are positioned just above the keyboard on the control platform.
• In the highlighted grouping on the right are
the PC1 through PC8 buttons used to select
and monitor a connected computer, plus the
red RESET button, which allows you to
re-boot.
• In the highlighted grouping on the left are
another six buttons (from left to right):
- AUTO adjusts the LCD display.
- MENU displays the OSD main menu.
- LEFT and RIGHT re-position the LCD image.
- EXIT leaves the currently displayed screen.
- POWER (red) turns the LCD on and off.
Also located on the control platform is the
touch pad (below the space bar), which can be used instead of a mouse for on-screen navigation.
On-Screen Display (OSD)
All computer control and switching procedures can be performed using the On-Screen Display (OSD).
• To display the main menu, press <Ctrl> on the keyboard twice.
• If the OSD menu is set as “Console locked,” you need to input a password each time the main menu appears. If no password has been
set, just press <Enter> to display the main menu. There are two passwords in the OSD: the user password, which is not pre-set; and the
factory password, which is “INTELLINET.”
• The OSD always starts at the List screen, with the highlight bar in the same position as when the OSD was exited.
Navigation
• To exit the OSD, press <Esc>.
• To move up and down through the menu one line at a time, use the Up and Down Arrow keys. If there are more listed entries than what
can appear on the main screen, the screen will scroll.
• To activate a port, move the highlight bar to it and press <Enter>.
• After you select a port, the OSD menu automatically disappears and the port currently selected is indicated.
