About the Software
You can operate the ServSelect IP from either an
analog or digital workstation. At the local station, you
will use the On-Screen Display (OSD). At the digital
station, you will use the ServSelect IP Software, a
powerful Explorer-like interface, to view your ServSelect
IP system.
The ServSelect IP Software is fully integrated with the
OSD, allowing you to manage your ServSelect IP and
other data-center devices both over LAN connections
and from the local station. The ServSelect IP Software
pulls server names from the OSD and then allows you
to view, manage and group your devices with ease.
For ease of installation, configure your server names in
the OSD and then resynchronize your ServSelect IP
Software digital station with the OSD any time you make
server changes.
While you can configure the entire ServSelect IP system through either its On-Screen Display (OSD) or ServSelect IP Software, we recommend first adding server names to the OSD at
the local analog station prior to “discovering” the appliance with the ServSelect IP Software at the digital station. Follow the procedure below for setting up the ServSelect IP Software through
local and digital stations. For more detailed instructions on hardware connection or firmware (OSD) configuration, refer to the ServSelect IP Installer/User Guide. For further information
about software setup, please refer to the ServSelect IP Software Installer/User Guide.
