NOTE: You can set up your USB ServerSwitch options, port names, etc.
before you connect your servers.
The preset values do not list any server names, but instead identify each port with
a generic Port number. The Port Number is fixed and always displayed in the on-
screen display, even if the user enters a name.
System Setup Options
System Setup Options are used for system maintenance and software updates.
The System Setup options are also accessible from the Main Menu Screen, by
pressing the F1 key to access the System Setup screen. System Options include
System Flash Memory Update (F) and Load Factory Settings (F12).
Caution: Do NOT use System Setup Options during normal operation, as these
will erase all user-entered data and may require a system reset. Updating the
FLASH memory requires that the System re-enumerate (reboot) which can
interrupt normal operation.
Refer to Section 7 for System Maintenance features and instructions.
