Installing your KVM Extender System involves the following eight steps (please refer to the installation diagram):
Important: Ensure that all equipment to be connected is powered off.
1. Connect the local console devices (mouse, keyboard, monitor, microphone and speakers) to the ports on the rear
of the Local Unit (KE0220L).
2. Plug the provided KVM cable into the appropriate connectors on the front of the KE0220L. Each connector is
marked with an identifying icon.
3. Plug the connectors on the other end of the KVM cable into the appropriate ports on the computer system (or
Console section of the KVM switch - if you are using one). Each connector is marked with an identifying icon.
4. Connect one end of a Cat 5e cableto the Remote I/O port on the KE0220L. (Cat 5e cable not
provided.)
5. Connect one of the provided power adapters into an AC power source; connect the adapter's power cable to
the DC Power Jack on the KE0220L.
6. Plug the other end of the Cat 5e cable into the Remote I/O port on the KE0220R.
7. Connect the remote console devices (mouse, keyboard, monitor, microphone and speakers) to the ports on the
rear of the Remote Unit (KE0220R).
8. Connect the other provided power adapter into an AC power source; connect the adapter's power cable to the
DC Power Jack on the KE0220R.
2. All devices capable of being upgraded are listed in the Device List. Select a device to see a description in the
Device Description panel. Click Next to perform the upgrade. This process must be done for each device you
wish to upgrade.
3. If you enable Check Firmware Version, the utility compares the current firmware level with that of the upgrade
files. If the current firmware version is the same level or higher than the upgrade files, a dialog box appears
prompting you to continue or cancel the upgrade. Click Yes to upgrade the firmware.
4. A message appears under Status Messages indicating the device that is being upgraded. A bar at the bottom
marks the progress of the upgrade.
5. After the upgrade has completed, a screen informs you that the upgrade was successful. Click Finish to close the
Firmware Upgrade Utility. The devices will exit Firmware Upgrade Mode and auto-reset.
Note: If the Upgrade Succeeded screen does not appear, the upgrade failed. You will need to repeat the upgrade
process starting over from the beginning.
Check our website regularly to find the latest firmware upgrade packages.
Before You Begin
1. From any computer that is not part of your KVM installation, go online to the www.altusen.com website and
download the latest Firmware Upgrade package for your KE0220.
2. Shut down the computer(s)on your KE0220 installation, and unplug the power adapter from the Local Unit.
3. Press and hold the Local/Remote selection button on the Local Unit, and then re-connect the power adapter.
4. Wait until both green LEDs on the front panel of the Local Unit are flashing before releasing the Local/Remote
selection button. The green and orange LEDs on the front panel of the Remote Unit should also be on to indicate
Firmware Upgrade Mode is in effect.
5. Use the Firmware Upgrade Cable provided with this unit to connect a COM port on your computer to the
Firmware Upgrade Port on the switch.
