Installation
This chapter covers the physical mounting and connection of the AdderView
Matrix.
Mounting
The initial step is to mount the AdderView Matrix in an optimum position,
where:
• It is in close proximity to the various computers that will be connected to it.
• There is a power supply socket.
• Optionally, there is an Category 5e or 6 network connection, if the
AdderLink IP is also being used.
The AdderView Matrix can be used on a desktop or mounted within a 19” rack.
For desktop applications, attach the supplied self-adhesive feet to the underside
to avoid damage to the desktop surface. For rack-mount applications, use the
optional brackets and mount the unit within the frame before connecting any
cables.
To attach the rack-mount brackets
1 On either side of the AdderView Matrix casing, position a rack mount
bracket with the slotted
holes facing out from
the front of the unit.
2 Secure the bracket with
three of the supplied
screws.
Connections
Installation of the AdderView Matrix involves numerous connections, which can
be classied into the following basic groups:
• User port connections
• Computer port connections to standard computers
• Computer port connections to alternative computers
• Power supply connection
There are also connections that can be made to achieve more advanced
congurations:
• AdderLink IP connections
• Power switching connections
• Cascade connections
• Multiple head video connections
