The CS1768 supports hot plugging – components can be removed and added

back into the installation by unplugging their cables from the ports without the

need to shut the unit down. In order for hot plugging to work properly, the

procedures described below must be followed:

In order for the OSD menus to correspond to KVM port changes, you must

manually reconfigure the OSD to reflect the new port information. See the F3

SET (page 31) and F4 ADM (page 33), functions for details.

Note: If the computer's operating system does not support hot plugging, this

function may not work properly.

The keyboard, monitor, and mouse can all be hot plugged. When hot plugging

the mouse:

You may unplug and replug the mouse (to reset the mouse, for example),

as long as you use the same mouse.

If you plug in a different mouse, all the computers on the installation must

be shut down for 10 seconds, then restarted following the power up

sequence described under Steps 6, 7, and 8 under Two Stage Installation,

Note: If, after hot plugging there is no response to keyboard and/or mouse

input, perform a Keyboard and Mouse Reset by simultaneously
