Rose ServeView Pro KVM Switch

The default setting for all ports on the multiplatform models is PC-PS/2. If you have a Mac or Sun that is attached to the system, you need to tell the ServeView what kind of computer is there. Use the Mode commands detailed in the manual. You will need to configure each port with the mode command that is specific to the attached computer. For example, to configure Port 3 to support a Sun computer, do the following:
1. Switch to port 3
2. Press: Left Control, m, 5, Enter
3. Follow each valid command with: Left Control, k

Make sure your ServeView is properly connected. Double-check your cable connections. Try switching ports with your keyboard commands (found in your manual). If the keyboard is working, execute the following keyboard sequence for each sun port (releasing each key before pressing the next): ctrl, m, 5, enter (without the commas). Follow up with ctrl, k to save the settings. Be sure to use the numbers at the top of the keyboard instead of the numpad.

Be sure that you are pressing and releasing each key in sequence and not simultaneously. Be sure that you are not pausing more than 2 seconds between each keypress. Be sure that you are not using the numpad for numerical input.

That is a firmware upgrade cable. You can use it to keep your ServeView updated with the latest updates which are posted regularly to our website.

Yes. Be sure to use the Keep command (ctrl, k). This will save all your settings into non-volitile memory which will allow you to completely disconnect your ServeView from all power sources, yet maintain your settings.

There is a specific cable for USB computers. Call Dakota at 877-816-1337 to order your USB CPU interface cable.
