7. Administration (continued) 7.2.3 Remote OSD Administration Tab (continued) Customization The Customization screen allows administrators to upgrade the IP firmware of the KVM and configure settings related to KVM operation. The sections that follow discuss the settings you will find on this page. Customization - Firmware Upgrade To upgrade the KVM's IP firmware, follow these steps: 1. Download the firmware upgrade file from the Tripp Lite website. 2. Open the Remote OSD and navigate to the Customization tab. 3. Click the Browse button and select the firmware upgrade file you just downloaded from the Tripp Lite website. 4. Click the Upload button in the Customization tab. A prompt appears to inform you the firmware upgrade process is underway. Upon completion, a prompt will appear stating the upgrade was successful, and that you will need to log out and reset the KVM. 5. Upon logging out of the KVM, a reset is performed to complete the upgrade process. Customization - Login Failures • Allowed: Enter into this field the number of unsuccessful login attempts that will be allowed from a remote computer. • Timeout (minutes): Enter into this field the number of minutes a user must wait before attempting to login again after exceeding the maximum number of unsuccessful logins. Customization - Working Mode The Working Mode section allows administrators to toggle particular KVM functions ON/OFF. The table describes the functions that can be controlled: Function Enable ICMP Enable Device List Force All to Grayscale Enable Browser Enable Multiuser Description When enabled, the KVM can be pinged and an IP address can be assigned with the ARP command. If it is not enabled, the device cannot be pinged, nor can it be assigned an IP address with the ARP command. The default is Enabled. When enabled, the KVM will show up in the list of recognized devices in the non-browser Windows client main screen. If not enabled, the nonbrowser Windows client will not be able to display it in the list of recognized devices. The default is Enabled. When enabled, the remote display for all users and ports is displayed in black and white. In low bandwidth situations, forcing video to grayscale can reduce the amount of data being transferred over the network and improve keyboard/mouse response time. The default is Disabled. When enabled, users are able to access the KVM switch via web browser. If browser access is not enabled, users must use either the Windows or Java non-browser clients to access the switch. The default is Enabled. When enabled, more than one user can log into the KVM at the same time. The default is Enabled. Note: This does not allow multiple users to simultaneously access different ports on the KVM switch, it only allows multiple users to login at the same time. When logged in at the same time, the first user to access the KVM switch will have control of the selected port, and all other users will be able to view that port. Customization - Mouse Sync Mode Determines how the local and remote mouse pointer movement becomes synchronized. Note: In order to be able to remotely access computers connected to the KVM via the PS/2 connectors on the KVM cable kit, this setting must be set to Manual. It is set to Manual by default. Selecting Automatic provides automatic syncing of the local and remote mouse pointers, eliminating the need to constantly re-sync the two movements manually. If Automatic syncing isn't able to keep the pointers in sync, selecting Manual provides you with a number of methods to bring them back into sync. (See the Mouse Synchronization section in this manual for details.) 41
