Chapter 2: Installation

Pre-configuration Notes

MasterConsole Z installation requires that a Port Name is assigned to each computer as it is added
to the MZCIM chain during installation. Ports are organized alphabetically by assigned name or
by the default name (the MZCIM’s serial number), not by order of placement in the
MasterConsole Z chain. Raritan recommends that you assign port names as you connect
computers instead of connecting all computers first and then assign port names – it may be
difficult to locate the respective port for each computer.

Hardware Installation

Important: MZUST must be powered OFF prior to installation.

1. Install MasterConsole Z User Station (MZUST):

A. Connect one end of an AC power cable to the MZUST and plug the other end of the

power cord into an AC power source.

rear panel of the MZUST.

C. Plug in and power ON the VGA monitor.
