Step 3: Install the FC-7
You can mount this Kramer Pico
TOOL™ next to a USB power source behind an
AV device, within the ceiling, on a desk top, wall or similar area. Fasten a bracket
on each side of the TOOLS using the two M3x8 screws (supplied). Use the flat-
head screws (supplied) to fix the TOOL to the mounting surface or enable it to
slide in place.
Or you can attach the rubber feet and place on a table or mount the
FC-7
in a rack
(using an optional
RK-3T
rack mount).
Step 4: Connect the inputs and outputs
Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your
FC-7
. For best results, we recommend that you always
use Kramer high-performance cables to connect controlled equipment to the
FC-7
.
Step 5: Connect the power
Connect a USB power source and/or an optional 5V DC power supply to the
FC-7
and plug it into the mains electricity.
Step 6: Configure and operate the FC-7
