the type B connector (square) plugs into the AdderView. USB cables should be no longer than 5 metres but this distance may be extended with the use of USB hubs. You should use tri-coax video cables to achieve a good video picture (the type of thick cable that you see on computer monitor connections). Lower quality ‘data’ cables will function correctly but will generally give relatively poor video pictures and are only suitable for screen resolutions of 640 x 480. Any unused computer connections can be left unconnected.

If you are using an Apple Macintosh computer and you wish to use the on/off key function on the keyboard then you must connect the keyboard directly to the AdderView’s peripheral port A. If you are using this on/off key function then you will also not be able to use an additional USB hub to extend the cable run between the computer and the AdderView. This is because the Macintosh on/off key function is not supported through a USB hub.
