• The ServSwitch’s
commands consist of a press
and release of the left Control
key followed by just a few
other keystrokes. Some of the
most useful commands are:
– [CTRL] nnn to switch to CPU
port number nnn
;
– [CTRL] + and [CTRL] – to
switch to the next or previous
port respectively;
– [CTRL] S and [CTRL] X to
turn scanning on and off
respectively;
– [CTRL] Tnn to set the scan
interval to nn seconds;
– [CTRL] K to save
configuration settings to the
Switch’s NVRAM;
– [CTRL] Mn to set the current
CPU port to keyboard
mode n
;
– [CTRL] N to resynchronize the
PS/2 mouse;
– [CTRL] R to reset the
keyboard and mouse;
– [CTRL] Pnnn to tell the Switch
the total number of CPU ports
in the system.
• The ServSwitch is not
designed to handle bus-
mouse I/O, so it cannot be
attached to bus-mouse CPUs,
and it cannot be an adequate
master unit for submaster
ServSwitch BusM units.
• The ServSwitch is not
designed to be cascaded with
the ServSwitch Multi, the
ServSelect, or the ServSwitch
Duo. However, ServSwitch
can be cascaded with itself,
the ServSwitch Ultra, the
Matrix ServSwitch, and the
ServSwitch Affinity.
• The maximum distance that
original Serv cable can be run
is 6.1 m end-to-end from the
shared peripherals to any
CPU. Because some CPUs can
drive keyboard and mouse
signals farther than that, we
offer coaxial cables in lengths
up to 30.5 m. (Consult with
your CPU manufacturers
about this, and note that
screen-image quality will
decrease with distance.)
• 4-Port Expansion Boards are
available if you would like to
add CPU ports to a full-size, 8-
, or 12-port ServSwitch. Since
it’s a tricky procedure, we’ll
install the upgrade for you at
no extra charge.
• Specially quoted cables are
available if you would like to
use an IBM 9515, 9517, or
9518 monitor. Call Tech
Support to find out about the
custom cables for these
products.
• If you would like to mount a
2-port “mini” ServSwitch in a
19", 23", or 24" rack, our
product code for the required
kit is RMK19M, RMK23M, or
RMK24M. The corresponding
product code for the 4- or
8-port “slim-line” Switches is
RMK19B, RMK23B, or
RMK24B, and the code for the
8-, 12-, and 16-port “full-size”
ServSwitches is RMK19C,
RMK23C, or RMK24C.
• The ServSwitch is not
designed to work with dongles
or docking stations. Call
Technical Support for
information on other products
that support these devices.
