Channel Configuration
Paragon recognizes a HubPac as an extension of a CIM, rather than as a device. As a result, each
server connected to the HubPac is configured as a directly connected server would be.
1. On the Selection Menu (by channel ID number) each green line indicates an active channel
(CIM/computer). Highlight the CIM/server to be selected by using the Ç, È, or Page Up,
Page Down keys. Press ENTER.
2. Normal computer access indicates successful connection. If necessary, manually adjust the
video skew by pressing the + or - keys in the numeric keypad.
3. Enter a meaningful name for each server (channel).
A. Press F5 for Administration Menu. Select Channel Configuration submenu with Ç or È
keys and press Enter.
B. Channel Configuration Menu. Press Ç or È to highlight (in yellow) Name field for
channel ID where CIM/computer was just installed. Press ENTER. The highlight turns
light blue.
C. Edit name (turns green when typing begins). Press ENTER when completed. Press S to
save new name.
D. Press F2 to return to Selection Menu (by channel ID number). Verify that new name
appears on Selection Menu in green.
