Installation
Connections
Installation of the X-DVI modules is straightforward and requires minimal
configuration in most cases.
•
Connections at the local module
•
Connections at the remote module
Note: After all connections are made, power up the monitor connected to the
remote module, then power up the remote module and finally switch on the
computer connected to the local module.
INSTALLATION ADVICE
– Connect the supplied protective ferrites at each
end of the CATx link cable and avoid disconnecting the CATx link cable
whilst the product is operational (powered on).
Switch settings
Both modules have a block of four mini switches located on their side panels. All
switches should remain OFF at all times during normal operation. Switch 1 on
the remote module is used to place both modules into upgrade mode. All other
switches are not used and should remain OFF at all times.
Mounting the modules – desk or rack
The X-DVI modules can be situated on a desk or alternatively, for larger
installations, mounted within an optional rack mount chassis.
Desk mount
Apply the supplied self-
adhesive rubber feet to the
underside of the module.
Rack mount
Note: The module switches are not accessible once it is inserted into the rack,
therefore, check all settings before insertion.
1 Place the rack securing plate (available as a separate kit) onto the front of the
module and secure it with the two countersunk screws.
2 Orient the X-DVI module on its side so that its labelled face is the correct
way up.
3 Slide the module into the required rack position. The rectangular cut-out in
the front upper lip of the rack allows the two screws on the module’s upper
edge to slide through.
4 The rack mount chassis has a series of holes in its floor that are spaced
to accommodate the two screws on the module’s lower edge.
Ensure that the screws correctly locate into the two holes of
the chosen slot. The rack securing plate on the module
should now be flush with the front of the rack
mount chassis.
5 Use the third
(pan-head)
screw, in
the top
hole of the
rack securing
plate to fasten
the module to
the rack.
