4 Connect both the analog switch and the system to an appropriate power source.
5 Power up the system.
6 Power up the analog switch.
NOTE:
If the analog switch is powered up before the system, it may result in only one server module displaying in
the analog switch OSCAR, instead of 10.
NOTE:
In addition, to the steps outlined above, some analog switches may require you to perform additional steps
to ensure that the KVM switch server modules appear in the analog switch OSCAR. See the analog switch
documentation for additional information.
