Important Safeguards

Safety Instructions

• Unplug equipment before cleaning. Don't use liquid or spray detergent;

use a moist cloth.

• Keep equipment away from excessive humidity and heat. Preferably,

keep it in an air-conditioned environment with temperatures not
exceeding 40º Celsius (104º Fahrenheit).

• When installing, place the equipment on a sturdy, level surface to

prevent it from accidentally falling and causing damage to other
equipment or injury to persons nearby.

• When the drawer is in an open position, do not cover, block or in any

way obstruct the gap between it and the power supply. Proper air
convection is necessary to keep it from overheating.

• Arrange the equipment's power cord in such a way that others won't

trip or fall over it.

• If you are using a power cord that didn't ship with the equipment,

ensure that it is rated for the voltage and current labeled on the
equipment's electrical ratings label. The voltage rating on the cord
should be higher than the one listed on the equipment's ratings label.

• Observe all precautions and warnings attached to the equipment.

• If you don't intend on using the equipment for a long time, disconnect it

from the power outlet to prevent being damaged by transient
over-voltage.

• Keep all liquids away from the equipment to minimize the risk of

accidental spillage. Liquid spilled on to the power supply or on other
hardware may cause damage, fire or electrical shock.

• Only qualified service personnel should open the chassis. Opening it

yourself could irreparably damage the equipment and invalidate its
warranty.

• If any part of the equipment becomes damaged or stops functioning,

have it checked by qualified service personnel.

Troubleshooting

• How do I adjust the resolution?

To change monitor resolution, choose Start > Control Panel > Display.
Select the Setting tab to adjust the monitor resolution in Desktop Area.
Available resolutions, including "640 x 480", "800 x 600", "1024 x 768",
"1152 x 864", and "1280 x 1024", are determined by the display card in
your computer.

• Is interference signal that appears on LCD normal when shutting

down the computer?

In rare cases, interference may appear on the monitor. This may be
caused by signal rate of VGA card and is considered normal. The
image quality can be improved by adjusting the phase or pixel rate
automatically or manually.

• The membrane button power light is not ON

 Press the power On / Off button on the LCD membrane to check if

the monitor is in the ON mode.

 Check the power cord is properly connected to the LCD KVM

Console and power outlet.

• Screen image is not centered or sized properly

 Press the

image.

 Adjust the H-position and V-position settings via the onscreen

menu.

• Is the Raritan LCD KVM Console hot-pluggable?

The LCD KVM Console is hot-pluggable, but components of
connected devices, such as servers and KVM switches, may not be
hot-pluggable. We suggest turning off the power to all devices before
connecting them. Apply power to connected devices again only after
the LCD KVM Console receives power.
