Configuration
The user is enabled to change the configuration of the signal extender in the setup
menu. This menu provides the possibility to view and edit the current configuration.
The setup menu is operated via any terminal emulation program (PuTTY, for exam-
ple). The supplied service cable enables the user to connect the computer on which the
terminal emulation program is installed to the Service socket of the signal extender.
Preparing the computer to use the setup menu
Before the setup menu can be called up, install a device driver to address the Service
socket and set a connection to the terminal emulation program.
Installing the device driver
Before adjusting the connection in the terminal emulation program, install the
device driver CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP .
This driver provides the Service socket of the KVM extender, which is connected via
service cable, as virtual serial interface (COM port). Now, the virtual interface can be
selected in the terminal emulation program to establish the connection.
How to install the device driver to address the Service socket:
1. Use the computer’s web browser to open the homepage www.gdsys.de .
2. Go to Downloads > Drivers .
3. Download the device driver for the operating system of your computer.
4. Run the file and follow the instructions of the installation wizard.
