OSCAR graphical user interface

Preface

1.1.2 Multiplatform support

The KVM s2-Adapter modules available with the KVM s2-1602/0801 support PS/2,
Sun and USB server environments. Using the On-Screen Configuration and Activ-
ity Reporting interface (OSCAR®) in conjunction with these modules allows you to
switch easily across platforms.
1.1.3 OSCAR graphical user interface
A KVM s2-1602/0801 switch uses OSCAR, which features intuitive menus to
configure your switch system and select computers. Computers can be identified
by unique name, EID or port number, allowing you to assign unique server names.
You can choose the display language for OSCAR (English, German, French, etc.)
by downloading updates for OSCAR. For more information, see "Flash Upgrades"
in Chapter 5.

1.1.4 Security

OSCAR allows you to protect your system with a screen saver password. After a
user-defined time, the screen saver mode engages and access is prohibited until the
appropriate password is entered to reactivate the system.

1.1.5 Operation modes

The OSCAR user interface provides convenient operation modes for easy KVM
s2-1602/0801 system administration. These modes (Broadcast, Scan and Switch)
allow you to manage your switching activities. Chapter 4 explains these modes in
detail.

1.1.6 Video

KVM s2-1602/0801 provides optimal resolution for analog VGA, SVGA and XGA
video. Achieve resolutions of up to 1280 x 1024 (at 75 Hz) with a 15 meter (49
foot) cable and up to 800 x 600 (at 60 Hz) with a 30 meter (98.5 foot) cable. Reso-
lutions will vary depending upon the length of cable separating your switch and
servers.

1.1.7 Plug and Play

The KVM s2-1602/0801 also supports Display Data Channel Plug and Play, which
automates configuration of the monitor and is compliant with the VESA DDC2B
standard.
