Appendix B: User Station Direct Mode 

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 Base Unit.  

To make this kind of “Direct Mode” connection, take these steps: 

1.  If you have not already done so, follow the instructions in steps 5A and 5B of Chapter 2: 

Installation, Installing a Paragon System with a Single Base Unit to attach the CIM to the 
CPU. 

2.  If you have not already done so, plug in and power ON your target server/computer. 
3.  Power off the User Station. 
4.  Run CAT5 cabling directly between the User Station and the CIM. 
5.  Power ON the UST. It should display a “DIRECT Mode: CIM connected” message on the 

LCD panel. 

 

While the User Station is in Direct Mode, if the CAT5 cabling between the User Station and the 
P2CIM-PS2 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. 

To return a User Station that’s in Direct Mode to normal operation, take these steps: 

1.  Power OFF the User Station. 
2.  Disconnect the opposite end of the CAT5 cabling from the CIM. 
3.  Connect the opposite end of the CAT5 cabling to a user port of a Base Unit. 
4.  Run other CAT5 cabling from the channel port of a Base Unit to the CIM. 
5.  Power ON the User Station.
