Setting Up

Setting up the CE350 / CE370 PS/2 KVM Extender system is simply a matter

of plugging in the cables. Make sure that all the equipment to be connected up

is powered Off. Refer to the installation diagram on the following page and do

the following:

1. Plug the cables from the local console devices (mouse, keyboard, monitor,

microphone, speakers) into their ports on the Console section on the rear

of the Local Unit (CE350L/CE370L). Each port is marked with an

appropriate icon to indicate itself.

2. Plug the appropriate connectors on the PS/2 KVM cable supplied with this

unit into their ports on the CPU section on the front of the Local Unit

(CE350L/CE370L).

3. Plug the connectors on the other end of the PS/2 KVM cable into the

appropriate ports on the local computer. Each connector is marked with an

appropriate icon to indicate which it is.

Note: If you are combining the CE350 / CE370 with a KVM switch, the

other end of the PS/2 KVM cable plugs into the appropriate ports on

the KVM switch.

4. For control of serial devices, connect the RS-232 serial port on the local

unit to a serial port on the local computer.

5. Plug either end of the Cat 5e cable into the CE350L/CE370L's Remote I/O

port. Plug the other end of the Cat 5e cable into the I/O port of the Remote

Unit (CE350R/CE370RQ).

6. Plug one of the power adapters (supplied with this package) into an AC

source; plug the adapter's power cable into the CE350L/CE370L's Power

Jack.

7. Plug the cables from the remote console devices (mouse, keyboard,

monitor, speakers, microphone), into their ports on the Console side of the

CE350R/CE370RQ.

8. Plug the second power adapter (supplied with this package) into an AC

source; plug the adapter's power cable into the CE350R/CE370RQ's

Power Jack.

Note: Hot-plugging the Cat 5e cable will automatically trigger the deskew

function.
