Snapshots: The Snapshots screen allows you to view and save a screenshot of the

controlled computer in its current state. This screenshot will update periodically

(automatically). Saved image les are stored in PNG format.

Logout: Clicking on Logout will terminate your Web Interface section. To re-initiate the

Web Interface, you will be required to re-enter your username and password.

VNC: To launch or disconnect a Virtual Network connection with the controlled

computer, click on Connect or Disconnect as appropriate.

File Transfer

The IP KVM is able to emulate a virtual USB

disk drive on any connected host. Depending

on conguration, it will appear to the host as

a oppy drive (1.44MB), an 8MB RAM Disk or a

CD-ROM. The host computer does not require

any special drivers or other conguration. You

can transfer les to the virtual disk at any time.

The IP KVM will wait until the host is not using

the disk, and add or remove the les.

When the host computer next looks at the

drive, it will notice the changes. You can read

les from the virtual disk at any time, as long

as the host is not actively writing to the disk.

All of this happens in the background, and

you may treat the virtual disk as a shared drive

without any restrictions.

• Access to the les is performed through the

web interface. Contents of the root directory are shown on the home page. You can

download les as you would any le on the web (right-click and Save target as).

• To upload a le, click Browse, select a le, and then click Upload.

• Files and directories may be deleted using the Delete button situated to their right.

When emulating a oppy disk or RAM Disk, the data is stored in RAM on the IP KVM

itself. In order to emulate a CD-ROM disk drive, a web server is required to provide

the CD-ROM image data. The Web server must be accessible to the unit, which

communicates with it constantly as data is needed.

Floppy mode: Choose the Format as oppy button to switch to oppy mode. Under

Windows, the drive will be identied as a “high density oppy” and will typically be

assigned a drive letter of B:

The capacity is limited to 1.44 megabytes in this mode. The purpose of supporting

oppy mode is to permit the use of oppy-disk images generated by other systems

(e.g. the ash BIOS upgrade process is performed with a special oppy and is bootable,
