Four PCs sharing one device One PC using four devices

This is "4 to 1" mode. This is "1 to 4" mode.

You must then set DIP switch #1 according to your mode. Refer to the previous page for more info.

•For “4 to 1” mode, DIP switch #1 is set to OFF

•For “1 to 4” mode, DIP switch #1 is set to ON

Set DIP switches 2 and 3 to your preference. See previous page.

Next, connect the computer(s), the device(s) and the Bitronics AutoSwitch together using the proper cables. From a computer to the AutoSwitch, use an IEEE DB25 M/M cable, such as the one included in the package. For connecting a printer to the AutoSwitch, use an IEEE printer cable, such as Belkin Part# F2A046-XX, where XX is the length in feet.
