Power ON
When you power on, reset, or power cycle the Secure Switch, the Secure Switch will perform a self-test
to check the device's integrity and security functions.
▶
Self-test process:
• •
All Port LEDs will turn ON and then OFF one by one.
• •
When the self-test completes successfully, it will switch to Port 1, with the Port 1's LED turning
GREEN.
▶
Self-test failure:
In case of self-test failure, the Secure Switch becomes inoperable, with the port LED(s) flashing, which
indicates a potential cause to the failure.
• •
The pre-defined port LED status indicates the failure cause.
• • Button jammed: The port LED of a jammed button will flash green.
• • When all port LEDs flash, it means the KVM tampering is detected or there is an integrity issue.
For security, the Secure Switch becomes inoperable after self test fails.
Please verify your KVM installation, pushbuttons, and then power cycle the Secure Switch. If the self-
test failure remains, stop using the Secure Switch, remove it from service and contact your Raritan
reseller.
After the Secure Switch is powered on and ready, power on your computers. By default the Secure
Switch will switch to Port 1 after self test.
The Secure Switch filters and emulates both the mouse and keyboard on each port after it is powered
on. If the keyboard, mouse, monitor, or smart card / CAC reader fails to operate properly, make sure
that you are using the appropriate peripherals that are supported and authorized peripherals. Then
power off the Secure Switch, check all cable connections, and power on the device again.
Manual Switching
For enhanced security, the Secure Switch offers manual port switching only. This is achieved by pressing
the port-selection pushbuttons located on the Secure Switch's front panel.
