Troubleshooting Cont.

1.The MiniView™ SE GCS82B/84B is designed to work with AT and PS/2 keyboards. Older XT (84 key) and some older AT keyboards ( those with the function keys on the side), will not work.

2.Some Notebook computers, noteably the IBM Thinkpad and Toshiba Tecra have trouble working with the MiniView™ SE GCS82B/84B w hen their mouse and keyboard ports are used simultaneously. To avoid this problem, only connect the mouse port or the keyboard port to the MiniView™ SE unit. If you connect the mouse port, you will need to use the notebook’s keyboard when the notebook is the active computer.
