Power-Up Sequence
For optimum performance and communication of DDC information between the monitor and CPU, we recommend powering up
the system as described below:
1.
Power-up the monitor.
Note: Make sure your monitor is in digital DVI mode (not analog DVI) for video to be viewed.
2.
With the keyboard and mouse connected to the UNIMUX, power-up the UNIMUX.
Note: It is recommended that the monitor be powered-ON before powering on the UNIMUX in order for DDC information
to be properly communicated.
3.
Power ON the CPU(s).
USB input devices (keyboard and mouse) can be hot plugged to and from the UNIMUX at any time.
