By default, monitors are typically set to the highest resolution they
support.
Once a monitor is connected to the KX III Local Console, KX III detects
the monitor's native resolution. As long as the native resolution is
supported by the Local Console, KX III uses that resolution.
If the native resolution is not supported by the Local Console, and no
other resolution is supported by the monitor and Local Console, KX III
uses the resolution of the last monitor that was connected to the Local
Console.
For example, you connect a monitor set to a resolution of
1600x1200@60Hz to the KX III Local Console. KX III uses that resolution
since it is supported by the Local Console.
If the next monitor you connect to the Local Console is not set to a
supported resolution, KX III uses the resolution of 1024x768@60.
For a list of supported Local Console video resolutions, see
KX III Local Port DVI Resolutions
DVI Resolutions" on page 378).
Consider reviewing Video Mode and Resolution Notes
for additional information.
The KX III Local Console provides an independent access path to the
connected KVM target servers.
Using the Local Console does not prevent other users from
simultaneously connecting over the network. And even when remote
users are connected to the KX III, you can still simultaneously access
your servers from the rack via the Local Console.
Because the KX III Local Console interface is completely replaced by the
interface for the target device you are accessing, a hot key is used to
disconnect from a target and return to the local port GUI.
A connect key is used to connect to a target or switch between targets.
The Local Port hot key allows you to rapidly access the KX III Local
Console user interface when a target device is currently being viewed.
