Port Selection
The KL3116 / KL3116T provides three port selection methods to access the
computers on the installation: Manual Port Switching, OSD Port Switching,
and Hotkey Port Switching. An additional method is available for the
KL3116T, which is the
Touch Screen Icon
.
For manual port switching, use the station selection and port selection
buttons on the keyboard module to manually switch to a port. Refer to
page 7 for details.
OSD port switching is described in Chapter 4.
Hotkey port switching is described in Chapter 5.
For KL3116T, use the
Touch Screen Icon
on the right side of
the LCD screen. See
Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port on a KL3116 / KL3116T installation is assigned a unique port
ID. The port ID is made up of two parts: a
Station Number
, and a
Port Number
:
The
Station Number:
is a two digit number which reflects the switch's
position in the daisy chain sequence.
Note:
The KL3116 / KL3116T has a station number of 01. The first daisy
chained switch has a station number of 02, the second daisy chained
switch has a station number of 03, etc.
The
Port Number:
is a two digit number which reflects the port on the
switch that the computer is connected to.
The
Station Number
precedes the port number.
Station and port numbers from 1–9 are padded with a preceding zero, so
they become 01–09.
For example, a computer attached to
Port 6
of
Station 12
would have a port
ID of:
12-06
