Chapter 1
Introduction
Overview
The KL1116 KVM Switch is a control unit that allows access to multiple
computers from a single KVM (keyboard, monitor, and mouse), console.
Before the development of the Master View, the only way to control multiple
computer configurations from a single console was through a complex and
costly network system. Now, with the KL1116, you can easily access multiple
computers in a cost effective manner.
A single KL1116 can control up to 16 computers. As many as 31 additional
units can be daisy chained to each other, so that up to 512 (KL1116 + KH0116)
computers can all be controlled from a single keyboard-monitor-mouse
console.
The KL1116 offers a space-saving, streamlined approach to KVM switch
technology by integrating a keyboard, LCD monitor, and touchpad in a
Hideawayâ„¢ housing. The LCD display is built into the cover; the keyboard
and touchpad are built into the base. Slide the LCD and keyboard modules out;
flip the cover up; and you are ready to go to work. When finished, flip the cover
down and slide the modules away. The LCD module and keyboard module
slide separately – you can see the video display, for example, while the
keyboard and touchpad are conveniently out of the way.
For further convenience, the Hideawayâ„¢ housing is slightly less than 1U high
for easy installation and manipulation in a 1U rack. The KL1116 also features
high density 15 pin connectors instead of the usual 25 pin connectors. This
space-saving innovation allows a full, 16 port switch to be installed in a 1U
system rack. Because of its modular design, the KVM section can be detached
from the switch section.
Your KL1116 investment is protected by an included Firmware Upgrade
Utility. You can stay current with the latest functionality improvements by
downloading firmware update files from our website as they become available,
and using the utility to quickly and conveniently perform the upgrade.
Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate ports is all that is
entailed. Because the KL1116 intercepts keyboard input directly, there is no
software to configure; no need to get involved in complex installation routines;
nor any need to be concerned with incompatibility problems.
KL1116 User Manual

Access to any computer connected to the installation is easily accomplished
either by means of a powerful, mouse driven, OSD (On Screen Display) menu
system, or by entering Hotkey combinations from the keyboard. A convenient
Auto Scan feature also permits automatic scanning and monitoring of the
activities of all computers running on the installation one by one.
There is no better way to save time and money than with a KL1116 installation.
By using the KL1116 with its Hideawayâ„¢ console to manage your installation,
you: (1) eliminate the expense of having to purchase a separate keyboard,
monitor, and mouse for each computer; (2) save all the space those extra
components would take up; (3) save the space that a keyboard, monitor, and
mouse would take with a standard KVM switch; (4) save on energy costs; and
(5) eliminate the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly
moving from one computer to another.

Hardware Requirements
Computers
The integrated LCD monitor's maximum resolution is 1024 x 768 (15") or
1280 x 1024 (17"). Make sure that none of the computer resolution settings
exceed the LCD monitor's maximum resolution.
Cables
Substandard cables may damage the connected devices or degrade overall
performance. For optimum signal integrity and to simplify the layout, we
strongly recommend that you use the high quality CS Custom Cable sets
described below:
Note: 1. The KL1116 does not support serial mice. You cannot use Serial-to-
PS/2 adapters with the cables. Attempts to do so will not work.
2. The KL1116 supports the installation of a local external console. If
you install an external console and wish to extend the distance
between it and the switch, CS Custom extender cables are available
in various lengths. Contact your dealer for details.

A standard rack mounting kit is provided with your KL1116. The kit enables
the switch to be mounted in rack with a depth of 42–77 cm.
Note: 1. It takes two people to mount the switch: one to hold it in place; the
other to screw it in.
2. The standard rack mounting kit does not include screws or cage nuts.
If you need additional screws or cage nuts, contact your rack dealer.
1. Important safety information regarding the placement of this
device is provided on page 53. Please review it before proceeding.

Optional mounting kits – including single person Easy Installation kits – are
available with a separate purchase. See Optional Rack Mounting, page 64 for
details.
To rack mount the KL1116, do the following:
1. While one person positions the KL1116 in the rack and holds it in place,
the second person loosely screws the front brackets to the rack.
2. While the first person still holds the KL1116 in place, the second person
slides the L brackets into the KL1116's side mounting brackets from the
rear until the bracket flanges contact the rack, then screws the L brackets
to the rack.
3. After the L brackets have been secured, tighten the front bracket screws.
Note: Allow at least 5.1 cm on each side for proper ventilation, and at least
12.7 cm at the back for the power cord and cable clearance.
