Page 18 VGA2Ethernet
The VGA2Ethernet device powers on and the LEDs go
through their power on sequence:
• When power is first connected, the blue LED lights up.
• A few seconds later the green LED lights up.
• After about 20 seconds, the blue LED turns off leaving the
green LED on to indicate that the VGA2Ethernet has
started up and can start capturing images.
4 Start up the VGA source.
• Install the VGA2Ethernet drivers and application and
confirm that a captured image appears in the
VGA2Ethernet user interface or Network Discovery utility.
See “Installing the Drivers and Application for Windows”
on page 21 and “Installing the Drivers and Applications for
Mac OS X” on page 28 .
If a captured image does not appear, check the VGA source to
make sure it is transmitting a VGA image. Also check the cable
between the VGA2Ethernet and the VGA source to make sure it is
connected correctly.
Connecting and Powering on a
KVM2Ethernet Device
This section describes how to connect a KVM2Ethernet device to
manage a computerized machine with a VGA output and
keyboard/mouse input.
• If the machine to be managed has a VGA port and PS2 mouse
and keyboard ports, you can connect the KVM2Ethernet
device directly.
• The KVM2Ethernet also comes with PS/2 to USB adapters that
you can use if the machine to be managed has USB ports for
mouse and keyboard connections.
• The KVM2Ethernet video connector is a VGA connector.
Note: The video capture workstation and the KVM2Ethernet
device must be on the same Ethernet subnet.
