Introduction 
 
Overview 
 
The combination of the StreamLine console and KVM switch offers the 
latest, most efficient way to control server rooms and multiple computers.  
Four models of StreamLine KVM switches are available to control from 8 
to 136 servers by the StreamLine console or another set of console 100ft 
(30m) away; it is ideal for various applications.   
 
On-Screen Display (OSD) Menu   
   
 
With a StreamLine KVM switch, you can name your computers, switch to 
a computer from a list, configure settings with easy-to-use menus, view 
the name of the selected computer on-screen with programmable time 
interval.  The OSD  menu  displays the system status throughout 
operation. 
 
  Automatic Mouse Conversion 
 
The StreamLine KVM Switch enables you to connect computers with 
PS/2 or serial mouse ports (using adapters supplied with the KVM Switch) 
and control the computers from one PS/2 mouse.  The StreamLine KVM 
Switch automatically identifies the mouse and switches to proper mouse 
protocol.  This function is effective for computer ports "7" and "8".
