Rack-Mount Installation
1. Measure the depth of the rack (the distance between the front and the rear mounting
rails) into which you are installing Sylphit.
2. Using the extension brackets’
mounting screws that came
with the unit, attach one
extension bracket to each side
of the unit with four (4) screws,
so that the unit’s depth will
(approximately) match the
rack’s depth. Keep the screws
somewhat loose to allow some
depth adjustment of the
extension brackets.
3. Using mounting screws that came with
your rack, mount Sylphit onto the rack’s
mounting rails, using 2 screws on each
one of the four mounting corners.
Adjust the depth of the extension
brackets while mounting the rear
section of Sylphit by sliding the
extension brackets, to match the depth
of the rack.
4. Once Sylphit’s two front mounting ears and two rear extension brackets are firmly
installed onto the rack’s rails, tighten the four screws connecting each extension
bracket to each side of Sylphit.

Local Console ports are used to connect an external monitor (to the HD15 VGA female
port) and external keyboard and mouse (to the two USB ports). The external monitor will
display video identical to the one displayed on Sylphit's screen. The external keyboard and
mouse will control the selected server just as Sylphit's built-in keyboard and mouse would.
Daisy Chain port is used to daisy-chain another bank of KVM switch, to serve as means of
expanding Sylphit's port capacity, allowing Sylphit to control more than its original eight (or
sixteen) ports.

Adding Ports to Control More Computers
You can expand the Sylphit KVM port-count by daisy-chaining additional Sylphit KVM
switches, connecting between them with a daisy chain cable. Each additional KVM switch
is considered by the switching system as an additional "Bank". The daisy chain cable
connects to the primary Sylphit Daisy Chain port. Control, switching and server access is
maintained from the primary Sylphit console.
Powering Up the System
1. Connect the AC power cord to the EIC
power outlet at the back of the unit.
2. Turn on the power to the Sylphit unit.
The On/Off Power switch is located on
the back of the unit, by the EIC power
outlet.
3. A beep will sound. The "Power
Light" on the LCD Display
Control Panel will light up in
solid green, indicating the
monitor is turned on.
NOTE: If the "Power Light" on the LCD Display Control Panel lights up in amber, it is an
indication that the monitor is turned off. Press the "Power" (On/Off) button on the LCD
Display Control Panel. The "Power Light" will light up in solid green.
