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 89 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 87).
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 55 ff.
NOTE: The connection between the computer module and the console module is
established automatically after the modules are started.
NOTE: The activation of the Transm. Redundancy feature activates the Transmission 2
interface.
To use the
Transmission 2 interface, you need an additional SFP transceiver.
Choose the right SFP transceiver for your variant of the VisionXS-F-DP-HR series. The
Transm. Redundancy options contain both, a corresponding SFP transceiver and the
Transm. Redundancy feature.
Use the Transmission 2 interface to establish a connection with a second counter-
part.
