To connect Sun computers with older style 13W3 video connections you will need to use the Sun cable together with a 13W3 to 15 way D-type video adapter.

The AdderView is now ready for connection to the mains using the mains power adapter supplied. It is important to apply power to the AdderView first, then power on the monitor and each of the computers in turn. Failure to switch the AdderView and computers on in the correct order can lead to the mouse and/or keyboard not being recognised by the computers when they are switched on. There is no ON/OFF switch and the AdderView will start to operate as soon as the power is applied.

Configure your computers in the same way that you would if your keyboard, mouse and monitor were all connected directly. If you are connecting PC computers then please bear in mind the following:
