1. General Information
KDM-7190/8/16 series User’s Manual
1.1 Overview
The KVM console is an ideal solution for network administration with multiple
servers / platforms. The 19-inch large size TFT LCD color display and
ultra-low-profile compact industrial keyboard / touchpad provide the user-friendliest
and most reliable environment for network administrators. All these functions are
integrated in a 19-inch 1U space with rugged construction design to achieve ultra
space saving an d high reliability for high quality industrial network applications.
The KVM console provide superior picture quality and state-of-the-art features
mounted in an industrial grade, rack mount console. The console forms a rugged
enclosure that protects the monitor from industrial hazards and permits easy
access to monitor controls.
The KVM console monitors provide flicker-free color images at optimal
resolutions. The monitors’ 0.264mm pixel pitch ensures crisp images with clear
definition, even at high resolutions. The KVM console monitors are intelligent,
microprocessor-based, and have an ergonomically designed display.
The KVM console monitors employ the latest in active matrix thin film transistor
(TFT) technology, providing crisp screen images and wide viewing angles.
Unlike CRT monitors, LCD monitors are inherently immune to the magnetic
fields commonly found on the plant floor or communications centers. LCDs are
also typically brighter than conventional CRT technology, making them ideal for
the high ambient lighting conditions found in many of today's factory
environments. On-screen menus allow for display adjustments. In addition, the
monitors' Plug-n-Play+ features support Wind ow s 9 5/ 98 ,N T an d XP , wh i le a
universal power supply ensures global applicability.
The KVM console monitors are compatible with most analog RGB (red, green, blue)
display standards, including PS/2, optional for Sun Micro System, Apple Macintosh
Centris, Quadra, and Macintosh II family signals. The LCD monitor is capable of
displaying crisp and vibrant color graphics with VGA, S2GA, XGA (non-interlaced),
and most Macintosh compatible color video cards.

3.2 Installing the Video Card and Video Driver
Before connecting the LCD console, make sure your computer has a video card already
installed for the monitor. After you connect the console, install the video software
driver. The video driver is supplied by the video card manufacturer and may be found
on the CD-ROM that came with your computer. If you need information on installing a
video card or video driver, refer to the manual that came with your video card.
3.2.1 Configuring the Display Settings
After connecting the console and turning on your computer, you may need to
configure one or more of the following display settings:
f
Display mode (also called desktop area or video resolution)
f
Refresh rate (also called vertical scan rate or vertical sync)
f
Color depth (also called color palette or number of colors)
Each video card has several controls that let you adjust the display settings. However,
the software and driver for each video card is unique. In most cases, you adjust these
settings by using a program or utility provided by the manufacturer of the video card.
Most video cards use the Windows Display Properties control panel to configure the
display. To open the Windows Display Properties, click the right mouse button in a
blank area of the Windows desktop and then select Properties. The Settings tab
us ua ll y le t s yo u ch an g e th e Co lo r Pa l et te a nd t he D es kt o p Ar ea (x by y pixel
resolution).
Some video cards integrate additional features into the Windows Display Properties
control panel to give you an exceptional setup that is flexible and easy to use. For
example, the control panel may include an Advanced Properties button, an
Adjustment tab, or a Refresh tab for changing other settings. Other video cards have
a separate utility for setting display properties.
Whenever you change the resolution, color, or refresh rate, the image size, position,
or shape may change. This behavior is normal. You can readjust the image using the
monitor on-screen controls. For more information on the monitor on-screen controls,
refer to Chapter 2. For more information on configuring the display settings, refer to
the manual that came with your video card.
