FLEX-5000C Computer Connections
Wireless Keyboard and Mouse
Insert (2) AAA batteries into the battery compartment in the bottom of the wireless computer
keyboard. Additional instructions may be found on the label underneath the keyboard.
Insert (2) AA batteries into the wireless mouse. The battery door covers the lower half of the
mouse and may be removed by a pressing/sliding motion on top of the product logo. With the
mouse in the operating position, the battery cover slides away from the buttons/scroll wheel
and toward you as you remove it.
Plug the USB connector of the wireless receiver into one of 4 USB ports, indicated as
USB
in
Figure 2 on page 6. (The green and purple 6-pin MiniDIN PS/2-style connectors on the wireless
interface are not used if a USB connection is made.)
If connecting additional USB devices, any USB jack will work with any USB device.
FireWire Cable
Connect the supplied FireWire cable between the Computer FireWire jack (
FireWire
in Figure 2) and
one of the two radio's FireWire jacks
(7)
as described on page 8. Make sure the ferrites are closest to
the radio's FireWire jacks
(7)
. Do not remove these ferrites since they are required for CE compliance
and to minimize RFI.
Monitor or LCD Display
Connect a monitor or LCD display to the
VGA
connector.
Note:
Even though the system supports digital video through the two
additional
DVI
connectors, it is necessary to use the
VGA
connector
to initialize the computer. Either
DVI
or
VGA
connector(s) may be
used after initialization
Computer Speakers
If desired, connect external computer speakers to the green jack marked
Speaker
in Figure 2. These
are used to output audio from the operating system and any programs you may use.
Note:
Do not confuse these with the internal speaker or external speakers
you may have connected to the Powered Speakers jack
(11)
, which
are strictly used for receive audio by the FLEX-5000.
