Pluggable Devices
The console server supports a variety of pluggable devices connected to its USBports. Some
models also support PCcards connected to the PCMCIAslots on the front of the console server.
For more information, go to http://emersonnetworkpower.com/en-us/products, then select
Infrastructure Management-Serial Consoles-Avocent ACS6000 Advanced Console Server. From
the product page, click the PCMCIACards tab to see the list of supported devices.
NOTE: When a pluggable device is not in the current list of supported pluggable devices, the console server
may attempt to configure the device with standard settings, allowing it to work normally. Also, when a
pluggable device is not listed in the internal database, the Device Info column may show no text at all or
show different text based on the type of card. One example is Unknown device f024 (rev 01).
To install and detect a pluggable device:
1. From the side navigation bar, select Pluggable Devices.
2. Click Enable Pluggable Device Detection to detect connected pluggable devices.
3. Connect a device to a USBport on the console server.
