characters. The password is not case sensitive and can be any combination of key
strokes, including the function keys, but excluding the CTRL, ALT, SHIFT and
RETURN keys. When you have typed in your password type RETURN to register it
in the stored memory. Do not worry if you type the password incorrectly, you can
always re-enter configure mode and set the password again.
For example, to enter OPENUP as the password type the following whilst in
configuration mode:
PfOPENUPf
What to do if your X-KVM is locked and you have lost or forgotten the
password
If your X-KVM is locked and you have lost or forgotten the password then you may
clear the password if you have access to the
local
unit. To clear the password
power down the
remote
unit and switch option switch 3 on the
local
unit to the on
position (see section 2.6). When you next power on the
remote
unit it will go straight
into configuration mode allowing you to clear or change the password. You will then
need to set option switch 3 on the
local
unit back to its default (off) position or the
remote
unit will go into configuration mode every time that you switch it on.
4.7 Querying the X-KVM’s firmware version
For technical support purposes it is sometimes useful to know the firmware version
of the X-KVM. The X-KVM can report its firmware version using a configuration
mode function.
To find the firmware version of your X-KVM you will first need to be running a
program on your computer that displays text when you type at the keyboard.
Suitable programs are text editors, word processors or command prompts. It doesn’t
matter what program you use provided that the characters typed in at the keyboard
are displayed on the screen. Enter configuration mode by pressing ‘HOTKEYs’ and
RETURN together (see section 4.5). Now type the following on the keyboard
connected to the
remote
unit:
