Hot Plugging

The KN9116 supports hot plugging - components can be removed and added

back into the installation by unplugging and replugging their cables from the

ports without the need to shut the unit down.

If you change computer positions, however, in order for the OSD menus to

correspond to the CPU port changes, you must manually reedit the Port Names

for the OSD to reflect the new Port information. See Edit Port Names (p. 21)

for details.

Note: If the computer’s Operating System does not support hot plugging, this

function may not work properly.

Port ID Numbering

Each CPU port on the installation is assigned a unique Port ID. The Port ID is a

two digit number which reflects the CPU Port on the KN9116 that the

computer is connected to. Port numbers from 1 - 9 are padded with a preceding

zero, so they become 01 - 09.

For example, a computer attached to Port 6 would have a Port ID of: 06.
