Assigning device types
While the appliance automatically discovers cascade switches attached to your unit,

Devices dialog box. The appliance recognizes KVM switches. You will see an Sw-8

Modify button appears, allowing you to assign the appropriate number of ports to it.
To access the Devices dialog box:
1. Press Print Screen. The Main dialog box will appear.
2. Click Setup - Devices. The Devices dialog box appears.
NOTE: The Modify button will only be available if a configurable switch is selected.
