Operations
Overview
Operating a remote workstation through the LongView IP KVM extender is no different than
working directly connected to your workstation. When you turn on the receiver, a connection is
automatically established with the workstation.
While the default settings of your LongView IP KVM extender will work with most systems, you
may choose to change settings to better fit your system.You can change internal settings and
upgrade the LongView KVM IP extender via the serial menu.
