4.2 BOOT UP SWITCHES

Some Video cards require the proper sense ID pins to determine the boot up mode. Sense pins are usually present on MAC video cards. When distribution amplifiers are used, the local monitor (monitor connecting directly to the computer) is no longer available. To insure the proper boot up of the computer, the DA1406WM has dip- switches located on the back panel of the unit.
