You can also control your
ServSelect III VM
system via the
ServSelect DB9 console configuration port. Connect an async terminal
or computer running terminal emulation to this port. Console main
menu options allows you to configure network settings (network
speed, static DHCP address, IP address, netmask, and default
gateway).

Use one virtual media module for each USB computer that you
want to connect to the
ServSelect
. A VM SAM addresses keyboard,
mouse, CD drive, and mass storage device.
The VM SAM presents the keyboard and mouse as a composite
USB 2.0 device, but keep its limitations in mind. For example, the
BIOS must support a composite USB 2.0 device. If the BIOS of the
connected computer doesn’t support this type of device, the keyboard
and mouse might not work until the operating system loads USB 2.0
device drivers. In this case, there might be a BIOS update provided by
the computer manufacturer that will provide BIOS support for a USB
2.0 connected keyboard and mouse.

Connect a control station with up to a 10-foot (3-m) cable to the
ServSelect III VM
for 1280 x 1024 resolution for analog VGA, SVGA,
and XGA. If you use a longer cable, the maximum resolution will be
less. For example, if the cable is 50 feet (15.2 m) long, the maximum
resolution is 800 x 600.

Several key combinations or mouse actions start the OSD interface,
perform a screen capture for a target device, display help for the
current window, close the current window without saving changes
and return to the previous window, or save changes and return to
the previous window. They also select a target device to be scanned,
complete a switch in the main window and exit the OSD interface,
return to the previously selected target device, disconnect the user
from the selected target device, or start the screen saver immediately
and lock out the user if it is password-protected. And, the keyboard
combinations or mouse actions move the cursor from line-to-line in
a list, move text in a field when editing, page through a list or help
window, move the cursor to the top or bottom of a list, or delete
selected characters in a field or the selected item in the scan list.

Three operation modes are available: Scan, Broadcast, and Switch
modes.
In Scan mode, the
ServSelect
automatically scans from server port
to server port. This mode determines which servers will be scanned,
how long (in seconds) that each server’s information will be visible,
and monitors the servers’ activity.

and monitors the servers’ activity.
In Broadcast mode, you can simultaneously control more than
one server to ensure that all selected servers receive the same input.
In Switch mode, either user can select and share any server
at any time.
USB VM
A ServSwitch

with built-in USB Virtual Media (VM) can
be directly connected to USB media storage devices such as
flash drives or external hard drives. USB VM enables you to
share these devices with all servers connected to the switch.
flash drives or external hard drives. USB VM enables you to
share these devices with all servers connected to the switch.
For example, if you connect a USB flash drive to a
VM-enabled ServSwitch, you can transfer data back and forth
between the flash drive and any server connected to the
switch! And because you don’t have to connect the flash
drive to each individual server, you save time performing file
transfers, patches, and diagnostics.
