2.2 Mounting the LINDY CPU Switch Smart

The LINDY CPU Switch Smart has been designed for use on a desktop or shelf in close proximity to the user’s monitor and peripherals. The optional remote controller may be used if you wish to locate the LINDY CPU Switch Smart on a desk or shelf that is some distance from the monitor and peripherals.

2.3 Connecting your devices

Ensure that the optional power adapter is disconnected from the LINDY CPU Switch Smart and that all the devices which are to be attached are switched off. Connect the shared keyboard, PS/2 mouse and monitor to the connectors at the rear of the LINDY CPU Switch Smart (see figs 1, 2 and 3). Next, connect each computer system unit in turn with the keyboard cable, mouse cable and video cable. LINDY 3- in-1 keyboard/video/mouse cables are recommended for maximum convenience. Any unused computer connections can be left unconnected. To connect computers with serial mouse connections and AT style keyboard connections use the adapters specified in appendix A. If you have an existing 6-pin mini-DIN to 9-pin serial adapter that came with a mouse it may not be suitable for use with the LINDY as there are several different standard wiring configurations for these adapters.

The LINDY CPU Switch Smart is now ready for use and will start to operate as soon as one of the attached PCs is powered on. If you are connecting to PCs using cables that are longer than 5 metres or are cascading the LINDY CPU Switch Smart to another LINDY CPU Switch Smart you will need to use the optional power adapter. When using the optional power adapter, ensure that it is connected to the mains and powering the LINDY CPU Switch Smart before you switch on the
