Welcome
Introduction
Thank you for choosing the AdderLink X2 Multi Screen extenders. Comprising two compact modules, these extenders allow you to place multiple video monitors and serial devices together with a keyboard, mouse and audio peripherals up to 200 metres from a computer system. In addition, locally connected video monitors, keyboard, mouse and speakers allow two users to simultaneously view the outputs of the host system and also take control of the system, providing it is not being used by the other user. A user relinquishes control two seconds after their last key press or mouse movement.
Two variants of the Multi Screen extenders are available, the MS2 model allows two video and serial channels, while the larger MS4 model provides four
separate channels. For both variants, a local module attaches to the computer system and provides connections for the local peripherals while the remote module is placed up to 200m away and handles the remote peripherals. The long distance link between the two modules is made by either two (MS2 model) or four (MS4 model) Category 5, or higher, twisted pair cables.
Special circuitry within the remote module allows you to make adjustments to the sharpness and brightness settings to suit your own preferences. Additionally, a Skew adjustment is also provided to counteract the effects of uneven lengths of twisted pair cables that are used to carry the video signals.

module.
The mouse, keyboard and speaker peripherals adjacent to the host computer connect to the LOCAL module. Note that the serial devices and microphone connections are not available at the LOCAL module.
The duplicate mouse, keyboard and audio peripherals connect to the REMOTE module.
