Remote Console Status Line 
 

Status line 
Shows both console and the connection state. The size of the remote screen is displayed. The 
example below was taken from a Remote Console with a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. The 
value  in  brackets  describes  the  connection  to  the  Remote  Console.  Norm  means  a  standard 
connection without encryption, SSL indicates a secure connection. 

 

 

Furthermore,  both  the  incoming  (In  :)  and  the  outgoing  (Out  :)  network  traffic  are  visible  (in 
kb/s). If compressed encoding is enabled, a value in brackets displays the compressed transfer 
rate.

Remote Power  
 
Future  firmware  updates  will  allow  you  to  control  external  RS232  controlled  power  control 
distribution  units.  Please  contact  LINDY  for  further  information  regarding  compatibility, 
connection and configuration of both LINDY and third party power control distribution units. 
Should you wish to connect a remote power outlet then LINDY would recommend you to use IP 
managed  power  strips  that  can  be  found  in  the  network  section  of  the  LINDY  website,  i.e. 
LINDY No. 32657, 32658, 32656, 32654, 32653, 32414, 32415  
 

  

Technological progress 
The KVM over IP Module and its software and firmware are subject to technological 
progress and are being continuously upgraded accordingly. Therefore minor changes 
compared to the descriptions in this manual may be found, especially for the design of the 
screens and menus.
