Raritan Computer 4.7 User Manual

 

A Paragon user station set to Direct Mode can be directly connected to a 
Paragon CIM, either temporarily for emergency “crash cart” access or 
permanently for non-switched extension purposes, without having to go 
through a Paragon Base Unit. 

 

1.  If you have not already done so, follow the instructions in steps 5A 

and 5B of 

 (on page 

19) to attach the CIM to the server. 

2.  If you have not already done so, plug in and turn on your server or 

computer. 

3.  Turn off the user station. 

4.  Run Cat5 cabling directly between the user station and the CIM. 

5.  Turn on the user station. It should display a “DIRECT Mode: CIM 

connected” message on the screen. 

While the user station is in Direct Mode, if the Cat5 cabling between the 
user station and the CIM becomes disconnected at any point for more 
than three to four seconds, the user station will exit Direct Mode. To 
re-establish Direct Mode, repeat the above steps.
