CHAPTER 4: Installing CPU-Interface Cards, Server Cables, and Computers

4.4.2FOR APPLE MACINTOSH COMPATIBLE COMPUTERS

For an Apple Macintosh compatible computer outputting Apple type video on a DB15 connector, the Server Cable you’ll need will be labeled KV2220, KV2225, KV2230, KV2240, KV2260, or KV2280 depending on the options you ordered (see Table 4-2 at the start of Section 4.4). The cable will have these computer-end connectors:

KV2220, KV2225, and

KV2230 Cables will have:

KV2240, KV2260 and

KV2280 Cables will have:

DB15 Male

to Mac Video Port

DB15 Male	4-Pin Mini-DIN Male
to Mac Video Port	to ADB Port

4-Pin Mini-DIN Male

to ADB Port

RCA Male (Mono)	RCA Male (Stereo)
to Audio In Port	to Audio Out Port
(blue band)

For a newer Mac compatible computer outputting VGA type video on an HD15 connector, the Server Cable you’ll need will be labeled KV2920, KV2925, etc., instead of KV2220, KV2225, etc. (see Table 4-2). Rather than a DB15 male connector as shown above, the cable will have an HD15 male VGA connector as shown in

Section 4.4.1. (Otherwise, the two types of cable are identical.)

To install your cable and computer at each chosen computer channel, first plug the Server Cable’s HD44 connector into the matching connector on the CPU-Interface Card. When you’re sure the connection is firmly seated, secure it by tightening the associated thumbscrews.

Now power down the computer and plug the connectors at the end of the Mac style Server Cable’s video-port and ADB port strands into the appropriate ports on your Mac compatible computer. If the Server Cable is an audio type, it will have two additional connectors: RCA plugs for a mono audio input and stereo output. Attach these to any appropriate audio ports or equipment as desired.
