Hardware Installation

Standard Rack Mounting

To rack mount the console, do the following:

1. While one person positions the CL3000 in the rack and holds it in place, the second person loosely screws the front brackets to the rack.
2. While the first person still holds the CL3000 in place, the second person slides the L brackets into the CL3000's side mounting brackets from the rear until the bracket flanges contact the rack, then screws the L brackets to the rack.
3. After the L brackets have been secured, tighten the front bracket screws.

Note: Allow at least 5.1 cm on each side for proper ventilation, and at least

12.7 cm at the back for the power cord and cable clearance.

Installation

Refer to the installation diagram as you perform the installation steps. The numbers in the diagrams correspond to the numbers of the steps.

Operation

Opening the Console

The CL3000's console is located under the top cover. To access the console, slide the console module out and raise the cover.

Note: As a safety precaution, to keep the console from accidentally sliding out, the console is locked into the In position. Before you can pull the console module out, you must release it by pushing the catches on the unit's front panel as indicated in diagram C.

Closing the Console

To slide the console module back in, close the cover and do the following:

1. Pull the safety catches on the unit's side rails toward you and push the module in until it stops.
2. Release the catches. Pull the module slightly toward you, then push it all the way in.

Note: The reason for the two step procedure is to minimize the chances of you pinching your fingers when sliding the module in.

Powering Off and Restarting

If it becomes necessary to Power Off the CL3000 (to upgrade the firmware, for example), simply turn off the power to the unit using the rear panel power switch. To restart the CL3000, turn the rear panel power switch back on.

Hotkeys

Console selection on the CL3000 is accomplished with hotkey combinations, as described in the following table:

Note:

1. Press the keys in sequence – one key at a time. First [Ctrl], then [Alt], then [Shift], etc.
2. Console selections are not saved. If the CL3000 is powered off, it reverts to the default setting of both consoles enabled when it is powered on again.
3. If the KVM switch connected to the CL3000 uses the [Ctrl] [Alt] [Shift] combination to invoke its hotkey mode, you won't be able to access any of its hotkey operations because the CL3000 will capture the combination for console selection first.
