2.1 Rackmounting
Rackmounting Instructions
Ambient Operating Temperature
The ambient operating temperature in the rack may be an issue and is dependent upon the rack load and ventilation. When installing in a closed or
multi-unit rack assembly, make sure that the temperature will not exceed the maximum rated ambient temperature. (32º to 104º F)
Airflow
Ensure that the airow within the rack is not compromised.
Circuit Overloading
When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, consider the effect that overloading of circuits might have on over-current protection and supply wiring.
Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
To protect against circuit overloading you should connect your NetController KVM and attached computers/servers to a Tripp Lite SmartPro
®
or
SmartOnline
®
UPS System.
The NetController KVM Switch is designed for mounting in a 1U rack system. For convenience, a rack mounting kit is included with your KVM
for quick installation. The various mounting options are explained in the sections that follow.
Standard Rackmounting
The standard rackmounting brackets that come attached to the
KVM Switch allow the unit to be installed in standard 1U racks
by a single individual.
Slide out the rear mounting brackets from the console
and mount both brackets (separate from the console) to the
inside rear of a standard 1U rack system using user-supplied
screws.
Take the console and gently slide it into the two rear-
mounted brackets in the rack and secure the console in place
by inserting user-supplied screws.
2-Post Rackmounting
The NetController KVM Switch can also be mounted in a 2-post rack installation using the optional 2-Post Rackmount Kit (model #: B019-000). The
mounting hardware allows for the console to be opened with the drawer in any position. Heavy-duty 14-gauge steel provides stability and prevents
the console frame from twisting. See the B019-000 instructional manual for detailed mounting instructions.

2.2 Connecting PCs and Peripherals to a Single Switch
Step 1: Connect the included AC power cord to the KVM Switch to power it on.
Step 2: Connect each computer to the KVM Switch using a P780-Series Tripp Lite USB PS/2 KVM Cable Kit. Not included.
The KVM Switch is now ready to operate as soon as you turn on any of the attached computers.
Note: When you are connecting a PS/2 computer, it is required that the NetController KVM Switch is connected and powered on before starting your computers.

2. Installation (continued)
2.3 Daisy-Chaining
Warning! The total length of daisy-chain cabling from the master KVM switch to the last KVM switch in a daisy-chain installation (regardless of the
number of levels) must not exceed 16 ft. (5 m). If the total length of daisy-chain cabling exceeds 16 ft. (5 m), the installation will not function properly.
To maximize the number of connected computers, multiple NetController KVM Switches can be daisy-chained together to connect up to a total of
128 computers. The NetController KVM Switches that are to be daisy-chained do not have to be of the same port capacity. You can daisy-chain any
combination of NetController KVM Switches to scale the port capacity with more exibility. KVM controls can then be extended to groups of computers
connected on the daisy-chain of NetController KVM Switches.
Note: B040-Series NetController KVM Switches cannot be daisy-chained off of another KVM switch. They can only be used as the master
(bank 1) KVM in a daisy-chained configuration.
Daisy-chain Multiple KVM Switches
Step 1: Connect the AC power cord to the master KVM Switch and plug it in to a power source.
Step 2: Use daisy-chain cable—HD15 (M) to HD15 (F)—to connect the daisy-chain OUT port of the master KVM switch to the
daisy-chain IN port of the second (downstream) NetController Switch.* Then connect the AC power cord to the second KVM Switch.
Step 3: Follow the same procedure for any additional KVM Switches you would like to attach, creating a daisy-chain up to 8 KVM Switches.
Step 4: After you have set up the Daisy-Chain of KVM Switches, plug the daisy-chain terminator into the daisy-chain OUT port of the last
KVM Switch.
Step 5: Connect each computer to the KVM Switches in your daisy-chain using a P780 series Tripp Lite USB PS/2 KVM Cable Kit. Not included.
Step 6: The KVM Switches are now ready to operate as soon as you turn on any of the attached computers.
Note: When you are connecting a PS/2 computer, it is required that the NetController KVM Switch is connected and powered on before starting your computer.
* A Tripp Lite P781-series daisy-chain cable is required (sold separately).

3. Operation
3.1 Control Interfaces
There are three ways to operate your NetController KVM Switch—Push buttons, Keyboard Hotkeys or the OSD Menu. The operation of these three control
methods is detailed below.
3.1.1 Push Buttons
The push buttons are used to directly select the active computer channel that can be controlled by the shared keyboard, mouse and monitor. Pressing a front-
panel button during normal operation will cause the corresponding channel to be selected.
3.1.2 Keyboard Hotkeys
Hotkeys are a convenient and quick way to operate the KVM Switch. Most of the hotkey control commands are preceded by two consecutive Scroll Lock
keystrokes, followed by a specic command key or key sequence:
Hotkey control command** = ScrLk* + ScrLk* + Command Key/Sequence
* User-Denable hotkey via the OSD Setup Menu. You have the option of using ScrLk, Caps Lock, Num Lock (OSD will say ‘Number’ instead of ‘Num Lock.’) or F12.
** Each key in a Hotkey Command must be pressed within 2 seconds of the previous key to allow the command to take place.
In most cases, it will take at least three keystrokes to complete a command. In certain cases, commands may require up to 6 strokes (such as when selecting
specic bank and port numbers for the active channel).
All the available hotkey commands and OSD Menu options are summarized in the following table for your convenience.
This chapter provides general guidelines for KVM Switch operation. It is strongly recommended that you read this chapter in advance of operating your
NetController KVM Switch.

All rmware upgrades for the B042-004, -008 and -016 KVM Switches will be available in the Support Section of www.tripplite.com. (If there are no updates
posted, there are none currently available.) Before downloading the rmware les, verify that the rmware version on the website is more current that that of
your KVM switch. You can nd your KVM switches rmware version by navigating to the Status Page in the OSD. You can also use the Firmware Upgrade
Utility to check your rmware version. (See below) To perform a rmware upgrade on your B042-Series KVM Switch, follow these instructions.
Step 1: Using the provided Firmware Upgrade Cable, connect a standalone computer (one not already connected to the KVM Switches Server Port) to the
KVM Switch. If you have multiple KVM Switches daisy-chained together, connect the Firmware Upgrade Cable to the Master KVM Switch (the
rst KVM in the daisy-chain). All KVM switches daisy-chained from the Master KVM switch will be upgraded simultaneously.
Step 2: Go to the Support section of www.tripplite.com and download the rmware upgrade utility and upgrade le.
Step 3: Before upgrading the rmware on your NetController KVM Switch, disable all running programs (anti-virus, system monitoring, etc.) on the
standalone computer you are using to perform the upgrade. These programs may prevent the rmware upgrade from completing successfully.
Step 4: Locate the .exe le you just downloaded and double-click on it. The KVM Upgrade Utility screen will open.
Figure 3-5: Firmware Select File Window
10
3. Operation (continued)
Step 5: Click the Select File button and nd the rmware upgrade le that you just downloaded.
Step 6: If you have not yet veried your KVM Switches rmware version number via the OSD Status page, click the Check Version button. This will
compare your KVM Switches rmware to the rmware upgrade le you just downloaded. If your KVM has more recent rmware, the Firmware
Upgrade Utility will ask you if you wish to continue.
If so, click the Upgrade button to start the upgrade. If not, close out of the Firmware Upgrade Utility. If your KVM Switch has older rmware
than the downloaded le, click on the Upgrade button to start the upgrade. (Upon clicking the Upgrade button, you will be notied that the video,
keyboard and mouse will be locked up during the upgrade process. Click yes to continue or no to exit.)
Step 7: During the rmware upgrade process, your KVM switch console will go blank and you will not be able to use the keyboard or mouse. Functionality
will return upon rmware completion. The Firmware Upgrade Utility will notify you if the update was successful or not. If the upgrade fails, see
the Troubleshooting section below.
Firmware Upgrade Troubleshooting
If the rmware upgrade fails due to timeout, stalls at any point for a long period of time or fails due to power outage, check to make sure all running
programs (anti-virus, system monitoring, etc.) are turned off. When you have determined all programs are disabled, unplug and re-plug the rmware
upgrade cable and try the upgrade procedure again.
If you nd that your keyboard and mouse are no longer working during a rmware upgrade failure, temporarily connect them to the host PC until you can
nish the upgrade. Once completed, your KVM console should again be working properly.
If you nd you have continued problems, please contact Tripp Lite Technical Support at (773) 869-1234 for assistance.
