Connections To A Usb Port - ADDER AdderView Matrix User Manual

Connections to a USB port

Some computers are not fitted with dedicated keyboard and mouse ports and
instead rely on USB keyboards and mice. The Adder USB converter cable
(part number: CCUSB-xM - where x is the length: 2, 5 or 10 metres) allows such
computers to be connected to the AdderView Matrix.
To connect a USB port computer
1 Ensure that power is disconnected from the AdderView Matrix and the
computer to be connected.
2 At the end of the converter cable that has three plugs, connect the
keyboard, mouse and video plugs to the three sockets of the chosen
COMPUTER PORT at the rear of the AdderView Matrix.
3 At the other end of the converter cable (with two plugs), connect the video
plug and USB plug to the relevant sockets on the computer.
When the AdderView Matrix and computer are switched on, the AdderView
Matrix will interact with the converter cable and together they will pass an
appropriate keyboard code to the computer.

power key which will be mapped
to perform the same function for
a Sun computer.
When used with Sun ® workstations, your USB converter needs to report a
keyboard country code to the host computer. Further details about this feature
are available from the support section of the Adder website: www.adder.com.
