Single Station Installation

In a single stage installation, there are no additional KVM switches daisy
chained down from the KL1508
installation, refer to the installation diagrams starting on page 15 (the numbers
in the diagram correspond with the numbers of the instruction steps), and do
the following:
1. Ground the KL1508
wire provided with your switch to the grounding terminal, and the other
end of the wire to a suitable grounded object.
Note: Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to
the unit from surges or static electricity.
2. Plug the console keyboard, monitor, and mouse into the unit's console
ports. The ports are color coded and marked with icons for easy
identification.
Note: You can use any combination of keyboard and mouse connections.
For example, you can use a PS/2 keyboard with a USB mouse.
3. Use Cat 5e/6 cable to connect any available KVM port to a KVM adapter
cable that is appropriate for the computer you are installing (see KVM
Adapter Cables, page 5 for details).
Note: To support a resolution of 1280x1024, the recommended maximum
distance between the unit and the KVM adapter cable is 50 meters.
4. Connect the KVM adapter cable to the computer.
Plug the connectors on the KVM adapter cable into the appropriate ports
of the computer you are installing. (See KVM Adapter Cable Installation
Diagrams, page 16 for connection examples.)
5. Plug the female end of the power cord into the KL1508
power socket; plug the male end into an AC power source.
