Hot Plugging
The RM-KB-LCD17x8/16KVM supports hot plugging – components can be
removed and added back into the installation by unplugging their cables from
the ports without the need to shut the unit down. In order for hot plugging to
work properly, however, the procedures described below must be followed:
Hot Plugging KVM Ports
You can add or remove computers by plugging/unplugging them into/from the
KVM ports. In order for the OSD menus to correspond to the change, however,
you must manually reconfigure the OSD to reflect the new Port information.
See F3: SET, page 36, and F4: ADM, page 38, for details.
Note: If the computer's Operating System does not support hot plugging, this
function may not work properly.
Hot Plugging External Console Ports
The external keyboard, monitor, mouse and front panel mouse connections can
all be hot plugged. When hot plugging a mouse:
You may unplug and replug the mouse (to reset the mouse, for example),
as long as you use the same mouse.
If you plug in a different mouse, all the stations and all the computers on
the installation must be shut down for 10 seconds, then restarted following
the power up sequence described under Step 5 on page 16.
