To connect your paired AutoView units:
1. Locate the pairing cable kit (CDUAL), containing two cables. The fi rst
cable is a Y-video cable with two 15-pin male VGA connectors and one
15-pin female VGA connector. The second is a 9-pin male serial cable.
2. Plug the male VGA connectors into the ports labeled Video on each of the
AutoView units.
3. Connect the female VGA connector to the end of your monitor cable.
4. Connect the serial cable to the ports labeled Setup on the AutoView units.
5. Connect a PS/2 mouse to the primary AutoView unit.
To connect computers to the AutoView system:
1. Power down the computers that will be part of your AutoView system.
Make sure that both of your AutoView units are turned off.
2. Locate your fi rst input cable. Plug the 25-pin D connector of your
input cable into one of the available ports on the rear of your primary
AutoView unit.
3. The other end of the fi rst input cable has connectors for video, keyboard
and mouse: a 15-pin HDD connector for video, a 5-pin DIN/6-pin miniDIN
connector for an AT or PS/2 keyboard connection and a 9-pin serial/6-pin
miniDIN connector for a serial or PS/2 mouse connection. The PS/2
mouse connector is designated by a yellow band or mouse icon. Plug the
appropriate connectors into the appropriate ports on your computer and
leave the remainder unconnected.
4. Locate your next input cable. Repeat steps 2 and 3 with all the computers
that will be attached to your primary AutoView.
5. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to attach the remaining computers to the
secondary AutoView.
6. Locate the power cords that came with your AutoView units. Plug each
one into the IEC power connectors on the AutoView units. Make sure that
the power switches are off, then plug the other end of the power cords
into appropriate AC wall outlets. This outlet must be near the equipment
and easily accessible to allow for unplugging prior to any servicing of
the unit.
7. Power up your secondary AutoView fi rst followed by your primary
AutoView, then all attached computers.
NOTE: The AutoView and all attached computers should be powered down before servicing
the unit. Always disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
