8 ULTRACONSOLE INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL

Site planning

Organizing your site and planning the placement of the computers, the KVM station, and the UltraConsole switches

is a key part in the installation and configuration process. Care should be taken when connecting the computers,

KVM and the UltraConsole switches. Locate the UltraConsole as close as possible to the computers so the CPU

cables are as short as possible but still give some freedom of movement. Using shorter cables keeps the video

noise to a minimum and reduces installation costs. Provide proper strain relief for all cables.

The UltraConsole can be rack mounted with Rose Electronics rack mount kit (see Appendix J & K). Another option

that makes for a clutter free installation is the Rose Electronics RackView™. The RackView is a complete KVM

station (keyboard, LCD monitor, and mouse) all in a compact, pullout drawer that fits in 1 or 2 rack units. The

RackView can also be ordered with the UltraConsole switch installed.

Wherever the UltraConsole is located, it should be on a secure surface, free from obstructions and objects that may

cause damage to the Unit or an individual.

Following are a few items to consider prior to installing or configuring the UltraConsole switch:



Identify the computers that do not use a PC2 type keyboard and a PS/2 mouse (default settings). Before

connecting these computers to a CPU port, the CPU port should be pre-configured to change the default

keyboard and mouse types to the correct types.



Each computer can be assigned a unique computer name. Names like staff, marketing, and finance make it easy

to identify and connect to.

The default computer names are Computer x (x = 1 – 1,000)



The KVM station can also be assigned a unique KVM name.

The default KVM name is KVM 1



Access to the system set-up and configuration can be limited by assigning a configuration password.



Access to the computers can be limited by assigning each user a unique user ID, password, and configuring the

switch to require a login.



Pre-plan the expansion cable routing for expanded systems.

The configuration of the system, computers, KVM stations, users, profiles, and groups are defined in the menu

section.
