The Control Panel consists of three rows: a row
of icons at the top, with two text rows below it.
Mouse DynaSync is only available for Windows and Mac (OS4.0 or higher).systems connected
to the KN2124v / KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v with a KA9170/ KA7170/ KA7175/
KA7176 KVM Adapter, and whose adapter attribute OS setting is configured for Win or Mac
All other configurations must use manual mouse synchronization. These procedures are to be
performed on the computers attached to the KN2124v / KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v 's ports
- not on the computer you are using to access the KN2124v / KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v.
Windows Systems:
Note:
You must use the generic mouse driver supplied with Windows.
• XP / Server 2003 -- middle position; Enhance pointer precision: off
• 2000 / ME -- Mouse motion: middle position; Acceleration: off
• NT / 98 / 95 -- Mouse speed: slowest
Sun / Linux Systems:
Open a terminal session and issue the following command:
• Sun: xset m 1
• Linux: xset m 0
Ordinarily, the top text row shows the video resolution of the remote display, while the lower row
shows the IP address of the device at the remote location at the left and the number of the bus and bus
position that the logged in user is on in the center.
As the mouse pointer moves over the icons in the icon bar, however, the information in the top row
changes to describe the icon's function. If a message is entered in the message board, and you have not
opened the message board in your session, the message scrolls across the bottom row.
The functions that the icons perform are described in the table below:
Port Operation
Click on a port in the left panel to switch to that port. The OSD provides a toolbar to help you control
the KN2124v / KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v from within the captured port. To bring up the toolbar,
tap the OSD Hotkey (Scroll Lock) twice. The toolbar appears at the upper left corner of the screen.
• Information about the functions that the Toolbar items
perform appears when you move the mouse over them.
• When the toolbar displays, mouse input is confined to the toolbar area and keyboard input has no
effect on the computer connected to the port. To carry out operations on the computer, close the
toolbar by clicking the X on it; or, recall the OSD and select the port again.

In a Single Stage installation, there are no additional switches cascaded from the KN2124v /
KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v. To set up a single stage installation, refer to the installation
diagrams (the numbers in the diagram correspond with the numbers of the instruction steps),
and do the following:
1. Use the 5-in-1 Console Cable supplied with the package to connect your Local Console
devices to the unit.
Note:
1. You can use any combination of keyboard and mouse connections. For example,
you can use a PS/2 keyboard with a USB mouse.
2. USB keyboards and mice can plug into the USB ports on the front panel, as well as
into the ports in the console port section.
3. The KN2124v / KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v does not support distances that
exceed 20m between itself and the local monitor.
2. Use Cat. 5e cable to connect any available KVM port to a KVM Adapter Cable that is
appropriate for the computer you are installing
3. Plug the connectors on the KVM Adapter Cable into the appropriate ports of the computer
you are installing.
4. Plug a cable from the LAN or WAN into the KN2124v / KN2140v /KN4124v / KN4140v’s
primary network interface socket.
5. (Optional) Plug another cable from the LAN or WAN into the KN2124v /KN2140v /
KN4124v / KN4140v backup (secondary) network interface socket.
6. (Optional) Use Cat. 5e cable to connect the KN2124v / KN2140v /KN4124v / KN4140v‘s
PON port to an SA0142 Adapter. Connect the Adapter to the PON IN port of a PN0108
Power Over the Net™ unit.
7. (Optional) Use Cat. 5e cable to connect the KN2124v / KN2140v /KN4124v / KN4140v's
Modem port to an SA0142 Adapter. Connect the Adapter’s serial connector to the modem’s
DB-9 port.
8. Use the grounding wire supplied with this package to ground the unit by connecting one end
of the wire to the grounding terminal, and the other end of the wire to a suitable grounded
object.
Note:
Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to the unit from
surges or static electricity.
9. Plug the power cord(s) supplied with this package into the KN2124v /KN2140v / KN4124v
/ KN4140v’s Power Socket, and then into an AC power source. When using a single power
socket, be sure to turn on the correct power switch. When using both power sockets, either
of the power switches can be used to turn on the KVM switch, or turn on both power
switches to enable dual power.
After the KN2124v / KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v is cabled up you can turn on the power.
After it is powered up, you can turn on the computers.
Once the KN2124v / KN2140v / KN4124v /
KN4140v has been cabled up, the Super
Administrator needs to set the unit up for user
operation using the local console. When the local
console has been connected up and the KN2124v
/ KN2140v / KN4124v / KN4140v turned on, a
login prompt appears on the console monitor:
