Computer systems

Each computer system is connected to the AdderView Pro 8 DVI unit using up to 
three cables.

To connect a computer system

1  Ensure that power is disconnected from the AdderView Pro 8 DVI unit and 

the system to be connected. 

2  Use a DVI cable or a VGA to DVI/I conversion cable (if using analogue 

signals) to link the video output of the computer’s graphic port to the DVI/I 
port of the required channel on the rear of the unit.

  Note: A combined DVI/I and USB (type A to B) cable is also available for 

linking computers to the AdderView Pro 8 DVI (Part numbers: VSCD3 for a 
2m cable and VSCD4 for a 5m cable).

3  Use a USB cable (type-A to type-B) to link a USB port on the computer 

system to the USB port of the required channel on the rear of the unit.

4  If required, use a stereo audio link cable (3.5mm jacks at either end) to link 

the speaker port on the computer system to the audio port of the required 
channel on the rear of the unit.

Power in connection

The AdderView Pro 8 DVI unit is supplied with a standard 20W power adapter. 
There is no on/off switch on the unit, so operation begins as soon as a power 
adapter is connected.

 

2  Connect the IEC connector of the supplied country-specific power lead to 

the socket of the power adapter.

To connect the power supply

1  Attach the output lead from the power 

adapter to the 

5V

 socket on the rear panel 

of the unit.

3  Connect the power lead to a nearby main supply socket.

Note: Both the unit and its power supply generate heat when in operation and 
will become warm to the touch. Do not enclose them or place them locations 
where air cannot circulate to cool the equipment. Do not operate the equipment 
in ambient temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Centigrade. Do not place the 
products in contact with equipment whose surface temperature exceeds 40 
degrees Centigrade.
