NTI UNIMUX MULTI-USER KVM SWITCH

REMOTE USER SUPPORT VIA CAT5
If the UNIMUX includes support for remotely locating users using CAT5 cable and an ST-C5USBV-R-300 extender (page 11), the
user can be up to 300 feet away and still have full control over the UNIMUX. From the display and devices connected to the ST-
C5USBV-R-300 the user can configure the UNIMUX, control which CPU the user has a connection to (as previously described in
this manual), and adjust the video quality of the extended signal.
Command Mode
The remote user can adjust video quality by first entering Command Mode.
To enter Command Mode, simultaneously press the left and right <
Shift
> keys on the keyboard connected to the ST-
C5USBV-R-300. The keyboard LEDs will illuminate.
To exit Command Mode, press <
Esc
>.
Video Quality Adjustment
It is possible that on initial startup the image on the monitor will not be as crisp as the image normally is. This is due to the
frequency characteristics of the CAT5 cable. It may be necessary to enter Command Mode (described above) and press
the
▲
(
up arrow
) or
▼
(
down arrow
) keys on the remote keyboard until the image is crisp and clear.
•
Press
▲
(
up arrow
) key if the image is not crisp and clear enough.
•
Press the
▼
(
down arrow
) key if the image has been over-corrected (such that horizontal lines appear to trail or
shadow at the edge of an open window).
•
A momentary press of either key will make a minor change in the image.
Ultimately, the image quality should improve to a satisfactory level. Once the adjustment is made, it should not be necessary to
change it again, as the new settings are stored in memory and become the default settings with each startup. To exit Command
Mode, press <
Esc
>.
Note: For additional quality adjustment, it may be necessary to adjust the brightness and contrast settings of the
monitor.
