Single Stage Installation

To set up your installation, refer to the installation diagram on page 9 (the
numbers in the diagram correspond to the steps below), and do the following:
1. Plug the USB keyboard and USB mouse into the USB console ports
located on the unit's rear panel.
2. Plug the speakers into the console speaker jack located on the front panel.
3. (Optional) Plug your secondary speakers into the audio port located on the
unit's rear panel. The front audio port has priority over that on the rear.
4. Using the cables provided with this package, plug the USB and speaker
connectors into their corresponding ports in the PC Ports section.
5. At the other ends of the cables, plug the USB and speaker connectors into
their respective ports on the computers. Be sure the monitors are
connected to their respective computers.
6. (Optional) Plug your USB peripherals into the USB Type A ports located
on the unit's front and rear panel.
7. (Optional) Plug an RJ-45 cable to the Serial Port to use RS-232 commands
to control the switch (see RS-232 Commands, on page 41).
8. (Optional) Plug a power adapter into the switch's Power Jack and then
plug the other end into an AC power source.*
Note: A power adapter is not provided with the package as the USB bus-power
allows the switch to get power from the computers. It requires connection to at
least two computers to get a sufficient power supply.
