• For system check by OSD
After connection completes, you should re-activate the KVM
portion OSD menu to check if the RMD-1150F-8 recognizes the
Slaves. A triangle mark (!) is placed to the right of the channel
name indicating the port is connected to a Slave not a computer.
A number to the left of the triangle mark indicates the Slave model,
i.e. 8! for KNV108 or KNV108D.
• Change Configuration while Running
Devices at any 'PC x' port can be changed at any time after initial
power-up. If you change any one of the "PC 1" to "PC 8" ports
connection from a computer to a Slave or vice versa, or replace the
devices of a port; the OSD will update this change the next time it
is activated.
Note: Any new device, a computer or a Slave, must be
turned off before it is connected to the RMD-1150F-8.
1.7.2 Operation
On power up, the RMD-1150F-8 is in Idle mode broadcasting VGA
signal from the selected computer and detecting for keyboard and
mouse activity. No matter internal or external keyboard or mouse
activity is detected, the RMD-1150F-8 immediately disables the
other CONSOLE from accessing the computer. In the mean time,
keyboard LEDs (Num/Caps/Scroll Lock) of the other CONSOLE
start to flash as its access is denied and the monitor is blocked
from VGA signal for security reason. After the user has finished
his operation for a period of time (i.e., User Timeout), the multi-
access RMD Switch returns to Idle mode. User Timeout has four
options, 5 sec, 30 sec, 60 sec and HOLD. Select HOLD when you
plan to access the RMD-1150F-8 for a long time. Pressing the
<Scroll Lock> twice forces the RMD-1150F-8 return to Idle mode
immediately regardless of the User Timeout setting.
The User Timeout is available in the OSD menu by pressing the
Function key <F4>, under the sub-menu More.
Note: Keyboard Speed option is not available for multi-access
models.
