Instruction manual

The main menu of the management software is a graphical representation of the front
panel of the bank 01 switch unit and any switches cascaded to it. The information
displayed corresponds to the physical front panel of the switch(es). See the previous
section for more information.
The software uses a “short form” to identify ports and banks on prompts and dialog
boxes. 0105 refers to bank 1, port 5; 1202 refers to bank 12, port 2 (and so on).
Powering units on and off
You can power ports on a given switch by clicking the corresponding virtual PC x button
on the main menu’s graphical representation. When clicked, the software will display the
following prompts:

Setting>Disconnect: Choosing Disconnect from the Setting menu will cause
the host computer to stop monitoring the switch(es).
