Rose UltraConsole Typical Application

Installation
UltraConsole is easy to install. You simply connect your computers and a KVM to the UltraConsole ports. Configure each switch's address and connect the switches together with the expansion cables. Access the onscreen menu with a simple keystroke, configure settings such as CPU names and security, and save it in flash memory.

Operation
Tailor UltraConsole by configuring the level of security that you desire. You can auto-assign security settings to a console station or require users to log into the switch with a user ID and password. The user profile grants access rights to designated computers and controls other characteristics. Use simple keyboard commands to access computers and view system status. Helpful screen messages indicate the status of all connections. To allow maximum versatility, users can connect in four different modes: view, share, control, and private.

On-Screen Display
UltraConsole excels with its on-screen menu system. The intuitive interface uses pop-up menus to make selections. User-friendly help lines are shown for each item. The interface can be programmed for English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese. You can easily configure CPU names, security, appearance, and many other features.

Serial Devices
The UltraConsole's OSD is so powerful that it is actually a color VT220 terminal emulator. You can configure any computer port to be serial. When you connect to a serial device, you get a 24x80 screen with two status lines. You can access the serial device just as if you were connected with a terminal. Linux serial ports will show directory lists in color.

Flash Memory
To support the latest devices, UltraConsole contains flash memory. We provide free, lifetime firmware upgrades.

Keyboard and Mouse
UltraConsole fully emulates the keyboard and mouse. It works on all major operating systems such as Windows, Solaris, Linux, UNIX, SGI, and OSX. Use any combination of PS/2, USB, and Sun including PS/2 wheel and serial mice. USB (PC, Apple, and Sun) and serial mouse are for the computer side only, not on the KVM side. It is compatible with European and Asian keyboard languages.
