2.4 Configuring your PCs
Configure you PC in the same way that you would if your keyboard, mouse and
monitor were all connected directly to your PC, but bearing in mind the following
points:
ADDERview emulates Microsoft compatible serial, IntelliMouse and PS/2 mice,
so ensure that your PC software is configured for a Microsoft mouse of the correct
type. Refer to the list of supported drivers in section 2.1.
ADDERview supports VGA/SVGA/XGA/XGA2 type monitors, but does not
support the automatic detection features available with some 'plug and play'
monitors and video cards. If you have this type of video card and monitor, you
should select the video mode manually instead of relying upon the automatic
detection feature.
2.5 Configuring the ADDERview
The toggle switches on the side of the ADDERview are used to select operating
options. The switches are continuously read by the ADDERview and may be
changed whilst the unit is powered on. The default setting (all switches OFF) is
suitable for most installations. The switches have the following functions.
1) Selects the hotkey combination that can be used to switch the ADDERview's
channel (see section 3.4)
2) Sets the ADDERview to scan all the ports or just the active ports whilst switching
between ports using the mouse or the hotkeys+tab key combination. It also
selects the ports that are scanned when the ADDERview is auto-scanning.
3) Sets the time that each channel will be displayed for during auto-scan. The
options are 2 or 5 seconds.
4) Selects whether the mouse can be used to switch the ADDERview's channel
(see section 3.5). If the mouse is being used to switch the ADDERview then the
third button or wheel button will not be available to the application software.
5) Option switch 5 is used to reset the ADDERview (see section 3.8). For normal
operation set this switch to the OFF position.
6) Option switch 6 is reserved and must be set to the OFF position.
