To connect computers with serial mouse connections and AT style keyboard connections use the adapters specified in appendix A. If you have an existing 6-pin mini-DIN to 9-pin serial adapter that came with a mouse it may not be suitable for use with the SmartView as the are several different standard wiring configurations for these adapters. Suitable serial adapters are supplied in Adders AT cable kits part codes VKVM-2M-AT, VKVM- 5M-AT and VKVM-10M-AT - see appendix AInstallation and Use SmartView XProSmartView XPro 2.4 Configuring your PCs2.5 Structuring your SmartView XPro installation Installation and UsePage When cascading SmartView XPros keep in mind the following rulesInstallation and Use SmartView XProPage The following diagrams show some typical SmartView XPro installationsInstallation and Use SmartView XProPage Fig. 5 - A typical installation using a single SmartView XProInstallation and Use SmartView XProPage Fig. 6 - A cascaded application using multiple SmartView XProsInstallation and Use SmartView XProPage 2.6 Maximising the video qualityInstallation and Use SmartView XProSmartView XPro 2.7 Other useful installation information2.8 Re-enabling a disconnected PS/2 mouse Installation and UseSmartView XPro Installation and UsePage Likely expected Connected at bootupType of mouse / system Driver typeStep 2 - Create an ADMIN administration account password 3.

Section 2.5 explains the rules that you must follow when installing a SmartView cascade. The number of cascade links that you install determines the number of simultaneous users that can access computers on the cascaded SmartViews. Ideally if you are cascading 4XPro units then you should use four cascade links as this will cause no blocking and will allow all four users simultaneous access to all computers Installation and UseSmartView XPro Fig. 7 - Creating menu entries for computers that areconnected to cascaded SmartViews Installation and UseSmartView XPro 3.6 Setting the SETUP OPTIONS and GLOBAL PREFERENCESFig. 8 - Possible cascade groups and their associated names Installation and UseInstallation and Use 3.6.1 SECURITY3.6.2 LANGUAGE 3.6.3 HOTKEYSSmartView XPro 3.6.4 KEYPAD CONTROLS3.6.5 EXCLUSIVE USE Installation and UseInstallation and Use 3.6.6 MOUSE SWITCHING3.6.8 AUTOSCAN MODE 3.6.7 SCREEN SAVERInstallation and Use 3.6.11 USER TIMEOUT3.6.9 AUTOSCAN TIME 3.6.10 OSD DWELL TIMEPage 3.6.12 RS232 Mouse TypeInstallation and Use SmartView XPro4.3 USER display and key switch 4.

Upgrading the SmartViews firmwareStep 1 - Prepare your computers Installation and UseInstallation and Use Step 4 - Power off the SmartView XProStep 5 - Power on the SmartView with the UPGRADE switch ON Step 2 - Connect your computer to the SmartView XProe.g.4X16V129.DAT Step 6 - Run the upgrade programSVXPRO.EXE e.g.4X16A129.HEX 4X16B129.HEX 4X16C129.HEXSmartView XPro SVXPRO Datfilename.DATSVXPRO 4X16V129.DAT Installation and UseSmartView XPro Some useful issues to bear in mind when performing flash upgradesThe upgrade program rewrites the SmartViews firmware code. If the upgrade process is interrupted then the SmartView will have invalid code and will not be able to operate. It is therefore good practice to ensure that the upgrade process is always fully completed. A partial or failed upgrade may be rectified by performing another upgrade. If the upgrade process is interrupted accidentally then you should immediately repeat the upgrade process without moving switch 2 from the upgrade ON position. Switch 2 forces the SmartView into flash upgrade mode and prevents the upgraded code from being run. Running faulty or partially upgraded code may have unpredictable results and may damage your SmartView or computing equipment. For obvious reasons, the code that the SmartView uses to perform upgrades is not itself upgradeable - a common problem on some flash upgradeable products that could effectively be destroyed by a partial upgrade Installation and UseA1.
