Powering off and Restarting
If it becomes necessary to power off the GCS1722 / GCS1724 unit, must do the following:
1. Shut down all the computers that are attached to the switch.
Note: You must unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function that are connected
to the shutdown switches. Otherwise, the switches will still receive power from the computers.
2. Unplug the switch’s power adapter cable.
3. Wait 10 seconds, then plug the switch’s power adapter cable back in.
4. After the switch is up, power on the computers.
Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port section on the GCS1722 / GCS1724 switch is assigned a port number. (1 or 2 for GCS1722; 1 to 4 for
GCS1724). The port numbers are marked on the rear panel of the switch (see page 8 for details).
The Port ID of a computer is derived from the KVM port number it is connected to, for example, a computer connected to
KVM port 2 has a Port ID of 2. The Port ID is used to specify which computer gets the KVM focus with the Hotkey port selec-
tion method (see page 13 for details).
Alternative Manual Port Selection Settings
When Hotkey Setting Mode has been activated, pressing [S] will invoke the alternative front panel pushbutton manual port
selection functions as follows (also, see page 20):
