connect. This will avoid the need to use key combinations to create any missing
keys (e.g. the Stop, Again, Props and Undo keys for Sun systems). Sun keyboards
have more keys than standard PC keyboards which have more keys than Mac
keyboards and so if you are controlling a mixture of computers that include any Suns
you are recommended to use a Sun keyboard.
A USB mouse.
The ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB supports most ‘Internet / scroll mice’ that are
compatible with the Microsoft IntelliMouse and Sun and Mac mice.
2.2 Mounting the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB
The ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB has been designed to be used either on a desktop or
mounted in a 19 inch rack. If the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB is to be used on a
desktop then you will need to stick the supplied self-adhesive rubber feet to the
underside of the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB. If the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB is to be
mounted in a 19 inch rack then you will need to fit the rack mounting brackets to the
side of the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB.
2.3 Connecting your devices
Ensure that the power is disconnected from the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB and all
devices which are to be attached. Connect any keyboards, monitors and mice to the
user port connectors at the rear of the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB (see figure 2). The
individual connectors are color coded for your convenience. If you are connecting
several KVM (Keyboard, Video monitor, Mouse) sets then you do not need to use
the same brands or mix of devices on each user port.
Next, connect each computer system unit in turn using the Black Box interface
cables that you have purchased for use with the ServSwitch Uno/Duo USB (see
Appendix A for cable specifications and part codes). These are color coded and
should connect directly to the various ports on your computers. Remember that the
video quality is maximized if the cables are kept as short as possible. Where
possible, 2 meter cables are recommended as these will give very high video
quality. Any unused computer connections can be left unconnected. The three main
cables type are shown in figure 3.
