SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS

4.2 Setting the Jumpers in the Remote Module (Optional)

There are two user-settable jumpers inside the Remote Module of the ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender. They control these options:

•Whether the Remote Module uses automatic (default) or manual gain control (jumper bank JP8).

•Whether the Remote Module passes a separate VSYNC signal to the monitor (default) or disconnects it (jumper JP9).

If you need to set the unit for a non-default option, open the Remote Module— being sure to take all reasonable precautions against static electricity—by unscrewing the upper part of its casing. (The jumper locations on the motherboard are shown in Figure 4-5.) Then set your desired jumpers as described in Sections 4.2.1 and/or 4.2.2, and then close the unit back up.

Figure 4-5. The locations of the ACS236A Remote Module’s jumpers.
