Rose electronic 2xE Benutzerhandbuch

 

To start, identify the following prior to installation: 

1.  Which UltraMatrix will be #1, #2, and so on.  
2.  Which computer will be #1, #2, and so on. 
3.  Which computers do not use a PC2 keyboard or a PS/2 mouse.  
4.  Which Unit and CPU port each computer will be connected to. 
5.  Which KVM station will be #1, #2, and so on.  
6.  The “Starting computer” number for each Unit. 
7.  The number of computers, or “Maximum computers”, that the 

UltraMatrix will be managing. 

 
The “Starting computer” and “Maximum computers” values are 
determined as follows:  
 
Starting computer 
The “Starting computer” number will depend on which Unit is being 
configured.  The “Starting computer” number for the first Unit is always 
one (default). Using Units that have 16 CPU ports, the “Starting 
computer” number for the second Unit is the total number of RS232 
ports on the first Unit time 4 plus (+) one or 17, the third Unit would 
have a “Starting computer” number of 33 (Total RS232 ports on unit #1 
and unit #2 times 4 plus (+) 1, and so on. 
 
Maximum computers 
The “Maximum computers” value is calculated by multiplying the total 
number of RS232 ports on all units by 4.  If your system consists of 10 
UltraMatrix 4xE Units, each with four (4) RS232 ports, the “Maximum 
computers” number would be 160 (40 - RS232 ports x 4).  The 
“Maximum computers” value must be entered from a KVM station and 
when saved, this value is propagated to all connected Units.  
 

The installation steps below are for all UltraMatrix switch models. 
  
Steps: 
(NOTE: Expansion cables should not be connected at this point) 
1.  Verify that power is “OFF” on all Ultramatrix switches. 
2.  Configure the “Starting computer” number for all the UltraMatrix 

switches, starting with Unit #2 by: (Unit #1 default = 1) 
a.  Connect a KVM station to Unit #2’s KVM #1 connector using 

the appropriate KVM adapter cable.  

b.  Apply power to the KVM monitor and to UltraMatrix #2. 
c.  When the internal diagnostic completes, press and release the 

left control [Ctrl] key, then the F12 key to display the “Main 
menu”.
