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 PageInstallation and Use 2.4 Configuring your PCs2.5 Structuring your SmartView XPro installation SmartView XProSmartView XPro When cascading SmartView XPros keep in mind the following rulesInstallation and Use PageSmartView XPro The following diagrams show some typical SmartView XPro installationsInstallation and Use PageSmartView XPro Fig. 5 - A typical installation using a single SmartView XProInstallation and Use PageSmartView XPro Fig. 6 - A cascaded application using multiple SmartView XProsInstallation and Use PageSmartView XPro 2.6 Maximising the video qualityInstallation and Use PageInstallation and Use 2.7 Other useful installation information2.8 Re-enabling a disconnected PS/2 mouse SmartView XProInstallation and Use SmartView XProPage Driver type Connected at bootupType of mouse / system Likely expectedStep 1 - Decide if you are going to use password security 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 SmartView XProInstallation and Use Fig. 7 - Creating menu entries for computers that areconnected to cascaded SmartViews SmartView XProInstallation and Use 3.6 Setting the SETUP OPTIONS and GLOBAL PREFERENCESFig. 8 - Possible cascade groups and their associated names SmartView XPro3.6.3 HOTKEYS 3.6.1 SECURITY3.6.2 LANGUAGE Installation and UseInstallation and Use 3.6.4 KEYPAD CONTROLS3.6.5 EXCLUSIVE USE SmartView XPro3.6.7 SCREEN SAVER 3.6.6 MOUSE SWITCHING3.6.8 AUTOSCAN MODE Installation and Use3.6.10 OSD DWELL TIME 3.6.11 USER TIMEOUT3.6.9 AUTOSCAN TIME Installation and UseSmartView XPro 3.6.12 RS232 Mouse TypeInstallation and Use Page4.2 Power supply connections and indicators 4.

Upgrading the SmartViews firmwareStep 1 - Prepare your computers SmartView XProStep 2 - Connect your computer to the SmartView XPro Step 4 - Power off the SmartView XProStep 5 - Power on the SmartView with the UPGRADE switch ON Installation and Usee.g.4X16A129.HEX 4X16B129.HEX 4X16C129.HEX Step 6 - Run the upgrade programSVXPRO.EXE e.g.4X16V129.DATInstallation and Use SVXPRO Datfilename.DATSVXPRO 4X16V129.DAT SmartView XProInstallation and Use 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 SmartView XProIMPORTANT NOTE Appendix A.
