SM500A—Automatic Switching System

Black Box Corporation

62

990-000-0001-E8

Figure 8.3. Typical setup for combined manual/software control using various control cards.
The Advanced GUI Based Management can access only the first chassis in the system. System gang
switching can be performed on all chassis.

Connect the System Gang cables (optional)

This optional cable connection is applicable to system gang switching and remote system
gang switching. Both of these switching functions will switch simultaneously all the
chassis in a system, from the initiating chassis downward to daisy chained chassis.

1.

Connect RJ11 cables from the GANG OUT port on one Advanced Control Card
to the GANG IN port on the next Advanced Control Card.

2.

Repeat this procedure in daisy chain fashion for all chassis.

8.3 Primary Windows

8.3.1 Main Window

The main window is displayed when starting the Advanced GUI Based Management
interface. All functions may be accessed from this window.
