Connecting The Keyboard, Mouse, And Tablet; Connecting The Graphics Monitor Calibration Device - HP xw8600 Workstation Hardware Setup Manual

To connect the monitor:
1 Use the short DVI cable to connect port 1 of the Nvidia Quadro FX graphics adapter card to the DVI
port of the Nvidia Quadro SDI Output adapter (the add-on card).
2 Use the longer DVI cable (F0-DVI-25-MN) to connect port 2 of the Nvidia Quadro FX graphics adapter
card to the DVI-D IN port of the monitor.
NOTE Although each end of the DVI cable appears to be identical, this is not the case. Ensure the connector
labeled Computer is connected to the workstation. Connect the one labeled Monitor to the monitor.
3 Optionally, extend the monitor cable to a machine room using the DVI extender cable
(DL.CAB-HDTV-FO82MM).

Connecting the Keyboard, Mouse, and Tablet

The keyboard, mouse and tablet connect to the workstation by way of the USB extender kit (TP.USB-EXT-410I).
The USB extender kit consists of a remote unit and a local unit, joined by an Ethernet cable
(DL.CAB-RJ45/RJ45).
To connect the keyboard, mouse, and tablet:
1 Connect the keyboard, mouse, and tablet to the remote unit of the USB extender kit.
NOTE For Lustre workstations, a standalone" tablet can nevertheless be installed and used, even if you are
using an Autodesk Control Surface featuring a built-in tablet.
2 Connect the local unit of the USB extender kit to the workstation port indicated in the workstation
connections overview illustration.
3 Use the supplied Ethernet cable to connect the remote and local units. If using an alternate cable, ensure
it is of type Cat5.
To calibrate the tablet:
Visual Effects and Finishing: Calibrate all aspects of the tablet, including margins, in the Pointer area of
the creative application s Preferences menu.
Lustre: In Lustre the tablet acts as a mouse, and requires no particular calibration.

Connecting the Graphics Monitor Calibration Device

To ensure the graphics monitor accurately represents colors and other visual information, a monitor calibration
device (TP.MON-CAL-LCDCRT) has been supplied. This section explains how to connect the device to the
workstation. It also presents information for later use, once you begin installing the operating system and
application software.
NOTE This section applies only to workstations on which Autodesk Lustre will be installed. For non-Lustre
workstations, refer to the Lustre Color Management User Guide for all steps, including attaching the monitor
calibration device.
Connect the monitor calibration device to port 4 on the remote unit of the USB extender (TP.USB-EXT-410I).
Once the application software installation is complete, start the eyeone27 daemon on the workstation by
typing the following at the shell prompt:
/etc/init.d/eyeone27 start
