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.


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.

The Admin. port is used for flash upgrades of firmware using MCUpdate. The Admin. port is also used for OverView, an add-on, PC Windows program to maintain configuration data and real-time tracking of user activity.

If I am cascading MX4 units and only have a need for 2 users on the base unit, do I need all four paths to each cascaded MX4?
No. You only need to connect an equal number of paths from the base unit to a 2nd tier as you have users on the base unit needing simultaneous access to the 2nd tier.
