Install and Configure PC Cards
Insert and configure PC cards only after you enable PC Card Detection, as described in the
following procedure.
Go to http://www.avocent.com to see the current list of supported PC cards.
NOTE: When a PC card is not listed in the internal database, the Device Info column may show no text at all or
show different text based on the type of card. One example is Unknown device f024 (rev 01).
NOTE: When a PC card is not in the current list of supported PC cards, if the card is detected by the console
server, the console server attempts to configure the device with standard settings. The device might operate
normally but it might not be supported by Avocent.
To enable PC Card Detection:
1. Select Appliance Settings-Security-Security Profile. The Security Profile content area is
displayed.
2. Select Enabled from the PC Card Detection drop-down menu.
NOTE: When using wireless PC cards, changes made to a configuration will take effect only after the card is
ejected and then re-inserted.
