Multi-Platform Client (MPC)

KX I and KX II Devices
The Raritan Multi-Platform Client (MPC) is a graphical interface that allows you to remotely
access the target devices connected to Dominion units. MPC can be installed for standalone use
or accessed through a Web browser.
After installing the Dominion KX II, either download a standalone version of Raritan MPC and
establish an initial network connection, or launch the application directly.
Note: MPC supports both KX I and KX II devices; use MPC if you would like to access servers
connected to both KX I and KX II devices with one user interface.
T o l au n ch M P C d ir e c tly :
1. To launch MPC from a client running any browser, type http://IP-ADDRESS/mpc into the
address line, where IP-ADDRESS is the IP address of your Raritan device. MPC will launch
in a new window that does not contain a menu bar, tool bar, scroll bar, or address bar. Work
in this window and toggle to other open windows using the ALT+TAB command.
2. When MPC launches, a device tree of all automatically detected Raritan devices found on
your subnet is displayed on the left side of the screen. If you do not find your Dominion KX
II unit listed by name, create an icon manually by selecting
Connection > New Profile . The
Add Connection window opens.
3. Type a device Description, specify a Connection Type, add the Dominion unit’s IP Address,
and click
OK . These specifications can be edited later.
4. In the Navigator panel on the left of the screen, double-click on the icon that corresponds to
your Dominion KX II unit.
Refer to the Raritan Multi-Platform Client (MPC) and Raritan Remote Client (RRC) User Guide ,
available on Raritan’s Website http://www.raritan.com/support/productdocumentation , or on the
Raritan User Manuals & Quick Setup Guides CD ROM included with your Dominion shipment
for complete information on installing and operating MPC.

KX I Devices Only
Raritan Remote Client (RRC) is a graphical user interface providing remote access to the target
devices.
Note: RRC cannot be used with the Dominion KX II; use MPC instead.
