The RCM101D can be accessed directly from a local console's keyboard/
mouse/monitor or via a laptop application (AP) program at the local site.
Console Lock Switch
The switch on the RCM101D rear panel lets you select how the mini USB port
operates.
Set the switch to LUC to use the mini USB port as a Laptop USB Console port.
This lets you conveniently configure the RCM101D directly at the local site
simply by connecting a laptop to the port. With the laptop, you can then access
and edit the RCM101D application. See p. 94 for more details on how to use
the Laptop USB Console feature.
Note: You can also set the mini USB port so that it functions as a Virtual
Media port. See p. 83 for more details.
Local Console
Use the keyboard, mouse and monitor to directly access and operate the local
console port. The RCM101D is able to split the signal to both the local and
remote consoles.
The local console has priority by default. Refer to Console Lock Switch
on page 11.
To configure concurrent usage for the local console user and remote
console user(s), refer to Multiuser Mode on page 59.
Message Tag
When a remote user logs on to the RCM101D, a message tag displays in the
local console. This serves as a reminder to the local user that operations may
be affected. Close the message tag by pressing the ESC key.
If the local user does not want operations to be disrupted, make sure the
Console Lock Switch is locked to the local console. The message tag does not
appear in this case.
