Changing the standard mode of the Service port

The Service port of the KVM switch can be used both for operating the setup menu

and for switching the channels with a serial device.

The

Setup Menu

mode is enabled in the default settings of the KVM switch. In this

mode, the Setup Menu is immediately displayed in the terminal emulator after a ses-

sion is established with the KVM switch.
