User Notice

All information, documentation, and specifications contained in this manual are subject to change without prior notification by the manufacturer. The manufacturer makes no representations or warranties, either expressed or implied, with respect to the contents hereof and specifically disclaims any warranties as to merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose. Any of the manufacturer's software described in this manual is sold or licensed as is. Should the programs prove defective following their purchase, the buyer (and not the manufacturer, its distributor, or its dealer), assumes the entire cost of all necessary servicing, repair and any incidental or consequential damages resulting from any defect in the software.

The manufacturer of this system is not responsible for any radio and/or TV interference caused by unauthorized modifications to this device. It is the responsibility of the user to correct such interference.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in the operation of this system if the correct operational voltage setting was not selected prior to operation. PLEASE VERIFY THAT THE VOLTAGE SETTING IS CORRECT BEFORE USE.

A typical LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) monitor has millions of pixels. A dead pixel refers to a pixel with a defect in its ability to display the correct color output. It most often looks like a tiny black or white spot on your screen, although it can be any other color. Since even a tiny dust particle on one of the pixels during the manufacturing process or a slight bump during shipping can create a dead pixel, the ISO 13406-2 norm defines 4 classes of acceptable screens with dead pixels--Class 1 is the best; Class 4 is the worst. Almost all manufacturers use Class 2 to establish their warranties, which allows a certain amount of dead pixels to exist before they will replace the screen. Since the manufacturers consider these screens to be acceptable under ISO specifications, we cannot be responsible for replacement or warranty of the TFT LCD panel.

Introduction

Overview

The CL6700MW DVI Full HD LCD Console is a single rail KVM console featuring a 17.3" HD widescreen with integrated keyboard and touchpad in a 1U rack-mountable sliding housing. The CL6700MW provides front end access to compatible KVM switches and utilizes space by closing flat and sliding into the rack. In addition, ports for an external USB keyboard and mouse as well as a monitor are provided on the rear panel.

The CL6700MW features DVI, HDMI, and VGA ports for the KVM switch and external console’s video connection. This added convenience provides three video options for both the external console and KVM switch connection. The CL6700MW also includes two mini stereo ports for connecting audio speakers.

Server rooms already installed with compatible KVM switches will have the advantage of easy LCD access, an additional KVM console, and a built-in space saving sliding module, without having to purchase a new KVM switch.

The CL6700MW’s firmware is upgradable, so you can stay current with the latest updates by downloading them from the ATEN website. Setup is fast and easy. Simply use the custom cables included with your device to connect the CL6700MW to the console ports of your KVM switch and you are ready to go!
