Stage C - Reconfigure the LOCAL connections and begin
1 On the computer from which you will run the upgrade, ensure
that its BIOS settings will allow it to boot from the floppy diskette
drive, rather than booting immediately from the hard drive.
2 Switch off the computer and disconnect the twisted pair cable
from the LOCAL module.
3 On the KVM+A multi-cable,
leave the keyboard connector
attached to the keyboard port
of the computer. Disconnect
the KVM+A multi-cable video
and mouse connectors from
the ports on the computer.
4 So that you can check
upgrade progress, connect a
monitor directly to the video
port of the computer.
5 On the LOCAL module, change switch 1 to the ON position.
Ensure that the upgrade diskette is in the floppy disk drive of the
computer.
6 Switch on the computer. The upgrade process will start
automatically and confirmation will be given on screen.
7 Switch off the computer and disconnect the KVM+A multi-cable.
Leave the monitor connected and the upgrade diskette in the
floppy disk drive. Return LOCAL switch 1 to the OFF position.
Now please follow Stage D.
Stage D - Reconfigure the REMOTE connections and begin
1 Disconnect all cables from the REMOTE module and take it to the
computer.
2 Use a ‘KVM switch-type’
keyboard cable (6pin mini-DIN
male to 6pin mini-DIN male
plugs with all lines connected)
- not supplied. Attach one end
of the cable to the keyboard
port of the computer. Connect
the other end of the cable to
the keyboard port of the
REMOTE module. This is the
only connection required.
3 On the REMOTE module,
change switch 1 to the ON position.
4 Attach the power supply unit to the POWER input of the REMOTE
module and connect the mains lead to a nearby wall socket.
5 Switch on the computer. The upgrade process will start
automatically and confirmation will be given on screen.
6 Switch off the computer and disconnect the REMOTE module.
Return REMOTE switch 1 to the OFF position.
Now please follow Stage E.
Stage E - Return all connections to their usual states
Once the upgrade process has been completed, perform the following
to return the system to its previous state.

instructions on correctly connecting the LOCAL and REMOTE
modules to the computer, its peripherals, the REMOTE power
supply and the twisted pair cable.
3 Remove the diskette from the system and reboot. The upgrade
process is now complete.
