Basic Operations

Your KVM Switch may be operated in a non-secure (no password required) or secure 

(password required) mode.  All units ship defaulted to the non-secure mode. For 

information on implementing password security, see the “Administrator Functions” 

section of Chapter 4.
Computers may be powered-up one at a time or all at once. No operator intervention 

is required during booting. As the system stabilizes, the green LED over each channel 

will light, indicating that the attached computer is powered on. A computer may now 

be selected via the on-screen display menu or, if you are in non-secure mode, channel 

push-buttons, the Scan button or keyboard hot-key sequence. The amber LED will light 

at the active computer.
The Scan push-button has one LED over it. Press the button momentarily to switch to 

the next computer in sequence. The LED will turn amber briefly during the channel 

switch. Press and hold the button for one second to initiate channel scanning. The LED 

will turn green while you are in scan mode.
There is one status LED. The LED lights red if an internal failure occurs. The LED 

will blink green for several seconds during power-up while the system performs a self-

diagnostic. After initialization, the LED remains green during normal operation and 

blinks only when you are in Command Mode.
