AdderLink X-Series
Installation and Use
Page 14
AdderLink to PCs support either a PS/2 or an RS232 mouse. X-KVM automatically
converts from the PS/2 mouse commands to RS232 serial mouse commands. Serial
mice types are selected by using an adapter as described in Appendix A. The X-
KVM will operate without a mouse connected if you do not wish to use one.
2.2 Mounting the X-KVM
The X-KVM has been designed to be used either on a desktop or mounted in a 19
inch rack. If you wish to use the X-KVM on a desktop then you will need to stick the
self-adhesive rubber feet onto the underside of each X-KVM module (one is supplied
for each corner).
If the X-KVM is to be mounted in a 19 inch rack then you will need the optional X-
Series rack mounting chassis (part code: X-RMK-CHASSIS) and a rack securing
plate for each local or remote module that you wish to rack mount. Part codes for
these securing plates are:
Rack securing plate for X-KVM local module:
X-RMK-KVM/T
Rack securing plate for X-KVM remote module:
X-RMK-KVM/R
The X-KVM may also be mounted on a suitable vertical surface, such as the side of
a desk, with the use of strong Velcro strips.
2.3 Connecting your devices
Ensure that the power adapter is disconnected from the X-KVM and that all the
devices which are to be attached are switched off. Connect your devices to the X-
KVM as shown in figure 6. Ensure that the cables are no longer than the maximum
cable lengths specified in appendix A. Any unused computer or peripheral
connections can be left unconnected. To connect computers with serial mouse
connections and AT style keyboard connections you will need to purchase adapters.
Please refer to appendix A for cable specifications.
