SERVSWITCH™ WIZARD MP
To reboot the Wizard MP without powering down the attached computers,
press the recessed switch on the underside of the Wizard MP to trigger a
power-on reset.
• To enter configuration mode while the ServSwitch Wizard MP is running, hold
down its front-panel pushbutton for 5 seconds until the front-panel display
shows “C”.
In configuration mode, you can change settings by typing a single-letter command
(for a given feature), followed by a single-digit numeric argument (for how you
want that feature to behave), followed by the [Enter] key. Press the [Esc] (escape)
key to abort a setting change before you fully enter it. The ServSwitch Wizard MP
will remain in configuration mode until you type the letter “E” followed by the
[Enter] key.
For example: To set the hotkey sequence to option #2 ([Ctrl] + [Shift] +
command key), type [H][2][Enter] while the ServSwitch Wizard MP is displaying
“C”, then type [E][Enter] to exit configuration mode.
The remaining sections of this chapter describe the Wizard MP’s user-
configurable settings.
