Installing Synchrony

This section covers the connections, switch setting and software installation procedures required to use the Synchrony application with the Adder TS4 unit.

Connections for Synchrony

When using the Synchrony software utility to provide automatic system switching (according to mouse movements) it is necessary to link the Adder TS4 to the designated ‘primary’ system that will run the software utility.

Note: The remote control cannot be used in conjunction with the Adder TS4 when a Synchrony auto switching link is being used because they both use the same switching socket.

To connect the Synchrony serial link cable

1Locate the Synchrony serial link cable.

2Attach the smaller of the two cable connectors to a vacant serial port socket on the designated ‘primary’ computer system.

3At the other end of the cable, attach the larger connector to the socket on the end of the Adder TS4 unit.

4On the underside of the Adder TS4 unit, remember to set switch 5 to ON to enable the auto switching mode.
