set to the factory default values.  The on-screen menu will temporarily disappear while 
all parameters are reset, and will reappear at the main on-screen menu once the 
parameters are reset.  The ServerSwitch will not be able to switch to another port or 
pass keyboard/mouse signals during the reset to factory defaults. 
 
B.2 Flash Update Procedure 
The flash update feature allows the user to install newer versions of operating software 
in the ServerSwitch 8200 without removing the unit from its installation.  New software 
revisions will be released from time to time to add features to the ServerSwitch 8200 or 
make changes for customer requests.  Note that the users will not be able to switch 
server ports during the update.
