SERVSWITCH™ WIZARD MULTIMEDIA KVM EXTENDER

Several things can cause the Extender’s Power LEDs to be dark or flashing. If
you’re running the Extender’s Unit A from CPU-interface power, this can be
caused by (in decreasing order of likelihood) loose/undone cable connections,
CPU cables being run farther than 3 m (10 ft.), low power on the CPU’s keyboard
port, the CPU being powered OFF, cables being broken, Unit A’s Power LEDs
being defective, or Unit A’s main board being defective.

On Unit B, and on Unit A if you’re running it from AC power, this can be

caused by (in decreasing order of likelihood) loose/undone power-supply
connections, AC outlet being turned OFF/not working, power supply being
broken, the Unit’s Power LEDs being defective, or the Unit’s main board being
defective. If you can’t determine the cause of this problem, call Black Box for
technical support.

5.3 How the Extender Uses the Keyboard LEDs

The ServSwitch Wizard Multimedia KVM Extender also uses the LEDs on the
attached keyboards to indicate various conditions. It will light the Num Lock, Caps
Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs in several different ways:

•

Configuration-mode indication—rolling sequence.

As shown in Figure 5-1

below, Unit B flashes the Num Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs on the
attached primary keyboard in sequence to show that it’s in configuration mode
(see 

Section 4.2.2

). Num Lock will light first while Caps Lock and Scroll Lock

are dark. Then Caps Lock only will be lit, then Scroll Lock only, and then Num
Lock again. The cycle repeats itself continuously until you exit configuration
mode, after which the LEDs will be placed back in the states they were in
before you went into configuration mode.

The speed of the cycle indicates how much video compensation the

Extender is applying (which is one of the things you can set in configuration
mode): A slow flash rate indicates low compensation suitable for shorter cable
distances, while a fast flash rate indicates high compensation suitable for
longer distances. For examples of actual rates and distances, see step 1 in

Section 4.2.2.A
