SERVSWITCH™ AND SERVSWITCH ULTRA™

4. Attach the power supplies to the master(s) and to the submasters. Plug in the

power supplies, but do not turn the master(s) or submasters ON.

5. Turn ON all of the submaster units, then the master unit(s).

6. Turn ON the computer identified as CPU 1. Wait until the boot process is

complete, then turn ON CPU 2, wait until it boots, turn ON CPU 3, etc., until

all of your computers are powered up.

NOTE

In the next three steps, “[CTRL]” represents pressing and releasing the

left Control Key, “[ENTER]” represents pressing and releasing the Enter

or Return Key, and “xxx” represents a number consisting of one to three

ASCII digits.

7. Set each master’s Maximum Ports, Units, and Width values so that the master

can scan correctly and properly control the interplay of the submaster units.

You can do this with these keyboard commands (see Sections 4.3.8 through

4.3.10):

• The Units command, to tell the master how many submasters there

are: [CTRL] Uxxx [ENTER]

•

The Width command, to tell the master

how many CPU ports are on

each submaster: [CTRL] Wxxx [ENTER]

• The Maximum Ports command, to tell the master the total number of

ports available in the system: [CTRL] Pxxx [ENTER]

8. You might need to set some or all of each master’s remaining configuration

parameters, especially the keyboard mode for some of your ports (see

Sections 4.3.4 through 4.3.7, 4.3.11, and 4.3.12).

9. To save the “Maximum Ports,” “Units,” and “Width,” numbers you entered to

the master unit’s nonvolatile memory, along with any of the other

configuration settings you might have changed, enter the “Keep Settings”

command, [CTRL] K [ENTER].

Your cascaded ServSwitch system should now be ready for operation.
