Start-up
After the proper installation of the KVM extenders they can be immediately put into
operation.
Mind the following activation sequence when starting the modules:
1. Switch on the external power supply of the console module
or switch on the internal power supply (DT variant only).
2. Switch on the external power supply of the computer module
or switch on the internal power supply (DT variant only).
3. Turn on the computer that is connected to the computer module.
Starting process
After the computer module and the console module are turned on, the LEDs on the
back panel show the module’s operating status.
For further information about this topic, also see the chapter Status LEDs on
page 88 ff.
Operation
You can operate the computer connected to the VisionXS-CPU computer module at
the remote console of the console module.
NOTE: The recommended activation sequence ensures that the KVM extenders
are able to read out the features of the connected monitor and to transmit them to
the computer (see DDC transmission with cache function on page 86).
IMPORTANT: The OpenAccess operating mode is set by default. In this operating
mode, access to the KVM extender is not protected by authentication. Information
on the operating modes can be found in chapter Operating modes of console modules
on page 54 ff.
NOTE: The connection between the computer module and the console module is
established automatically after the modules are started.
The activation of the Transm. Redundancy feature activates the Transmission 2 inter-
face.
Use the
Transmission 2 interface to establish a connection with a second counter-
part.
