FAQ


I just received a Raritan product and I need help installing it. Where can I go to get help?
Raritan's technical support group can provide you with assistance over the phone or via e-mail. It does not make any difference where you purchased your product; Raritan will provide technical support. Please have your packing slip handy to verify the parts you received. Also, a general knowledge is very helpful to you when calling, so take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the installation manual.


I have a MasterConsole II MCC model. Is it the same as my MCX or MCS model?
The MCC model replaces both the MCX and the MCS models. It is 100% compatible and can be cascaded with another MCC model or MCX or MCS model.


The RMT or 2ND light on the front of my MasterConsole II is always on. Is that normal?
If the unit is used as a tier, it is normal to have the 2nd light lit. To use this unit as a stand alone unit, or a base unit, power on the MasterConsole II while holding in the channel 4 button on the front panel (Channel 3 on the MCC models) This will initialize the unit as a stand-alone device. The RMT light should only be on when using a remote access kit containing a remote RKVM module and the remote user is active.


On the back of my MasterConsole II there is a port labeled, "Admin". What is it used for?
The Admin. port is used for flash upgrades of firmware using MCUpdate. On the MX4 and SMX, the Admin. port is also used for OverView, a software application running on a PC that tracks MX4 activity and optionally maintains the configuration data.
