CHAPTER 4: Operation
The first part of this chapter, Section 4.1 , gives you some guidelines that you
should follow to make sure your ServManager works properly with your
equipment.
Section 4.2 summarizes the ServManager’s keyboard commands,
and Section 4.3 describes these commands in detail. Section 4.4 details how to
use the ServManager’s front-panel keypad and display. Section 4.5 describes a
complex application that illustrates the ServManager’s flexibility. Section 4.6
outlines how you can select ports or upgrade firmware from an optional
computer or terminal connected to the ServManager’s RS-232 port.
NOTES
With the optional overlay board SW720C-R3 installed, your ServManager
can be controlled through an on-screen menu. Call Black Box for details.
To start any ServManager keyboard command, you must press and
release the left Control Key ([CTRL]). Pressing and releasing [CTRL] cues
the ServManager to expect command characters from the keyboard. You
then have two seconds in which to start entering a valid command. If no
command is begun within two seconds or if an invalid command is
entered, the ServManager aborts the command.
When entering commands that contain numbers or math symbols, use
only the numeral keys located at the top of your alphanumeric keyboard.
Numbers and symbols entered from the numeric keypad to the right will
not be recognized as valid.

• IBM type: Use only IBM AT or PS/2 or 100% compatible machines. The
ServManager does not support IBM PC/XT™ or compatible machines.
• Apple or Sun type: Since the basic hardware design has remained
backward-compatible for these CPUs, the ServManager supports all Apple
and Sun machines.
