Configuring the DIP Switch
The DIP switch is used to configure three different features: video options and
sync, keyboard/mouse time-out, and keyboard translation options. The diagram
below shows the DIP switch, the positions used to configure each of these
features, and the default settings.
Reserved
Video Options
If your Sun uses composite sync and your monitor will support this, no
additional configuration is required. If your monitor requires horizontal and
vertical sync, configure your system according to the table below.
By default, a computer's video will be displayed for any console user that
switches to that channel. If you do not want a computer's video to be displayed,
you can disable the video for that channel. Additionally, if you are only
running your keyboard and mouse through the XP4000 Series unit, and your
video is independent of the system, you should select the option to disable the
video. See the table below.
