Renaming computers
In the defaults, the different computers are automatically named. The name com-
prises the term CPU , a space and the number of the computer (for example CPU 4 ).
The names can be edited and may contain up to 14 alphanumeric characters.
How to rename computers in the KVM switch:
1. Press Ctrl+Num (Standard) to open the On-Screen Display.
2. Press F1 to open the menu.
3. Use the Arrow keys to choose CPU Config and press Enter .
4. Choose the computer you want to rename.
5. Enter the name and press Enter .
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to rename another computer.
7. Press F1 to save your settings.
Enabling or resetting PS/2 mouses
Unlike USB mouses, PS/2 mouses do not support hot plug technology. You can
therefore insert the PS/2 plug during operation, but the input device might not be
detected by the computer.
To enable or reset the PS/2 mouse, the KVM switch can be used to send a special
command to the computer.
Since the commands differ depending on the used mouse type and the installed
operating system, four different setup keys are provided.
NOTE: Only the Supervisor and users with configuration rights (see page 27) can
rename a computer.
