Find A Suitable Location; Connections - MagicBox VIP User Manual

Find a Suitable Location

The VIP unit should be placed on a stable, flat, level surface. Ensure that
the unit is not in a place where it may be easily knocked over, have its
cords tripped over, or have liquids spilled into it. The VIP unit warranty
does not cover damage caused by accidents or misuse.
An optional rack-mounting kit is available for professional/industrial
installations. If you have this kit, follow the instructions included with
the kit before hooking up cables to your VIP unit.

Connections

Most of the VIP's connections are found on the rear panel, shown below.
In addition, a serial port is located on the front of the unit, behind a flip-
up plastic cover.
If you intend to use the serial port, you must use a VIP Serial Cable from
MagicBox, Inc. Use of other cables which may seem to fit, such as
Macintosh serial cables or S-Video cables, could damage the VIP unit.
Such damage is not covered by warranty.
VIP Rear Panel Diagram
The connectors, from left to right, are "Printer", "VGA", "S-Video",
"Video", "Audio L&R", and "Power". The Printer port is used to
connect the Ethernet adapter on VIP Express models. The Audio ports
are for future expansion and are not currently used.
⌧
Ensure that the VIP unit's power cord is unplugged
before adding or changing any other connections.
Connecting cables while the power is applied may cause
damage to your VIP unit. Such damage is not covered
by warranty.
