4.3 Finishing Your Installation
To finish installing a Remote after attaching devices to it as described in
Section 4.2
, take these steps:
1. Interconnect the Local(s) and the Remote by running CAT5 cabling between
their front-panel modular “Interconnect” jacks. This cabling shouldn’t be
longer than 50 m (160 ft.) if you’re attaching a Local to a Micro Remote, or
300 m (1000 ft.) if you’re attaching a Local to a non-Micro Remote. (Your
Extender system’s manual will list additional guidelines for this cabling in its
“The Cables You’ll Need” section.)
CAUTION!
The Switching Remote Unit (ACUREMSW) has more advanced firmware
than the regular Single-Access Local Hubs (ACU1006RA and
ACU1012RA); this minor incompatibility will cause the Scroll Lock LED
not to light on the remote keyboard, although the [Scroll Lock] key will
still work.
Although we don’t recommend doing so, the Switching Remote Unit
can in theory be used with a regular Dual-Access Local Hub
(ACU1006DRA) that’s running its original firmware. However, in this
case the firmware incompatibility is more serious. Do
not use Private
Mode in a system with a Switching Remote attached to a Dual-Access
Local Hub that’s still running its original firmware—you will not be able
to turn Private Mode off! We
strongly recommend that you upgrade the
firmware at least to version S5.0 on any Dual-Access Local Hub that you
want to attach to a Switching Remote Unit. Call Black Box Tech Support
if you want to do this.
2. If the Remote is a full-size (non-Micro) Remote Unit, turn its Brightness and
Focus dials counterclockwise, by hand or with a screwdriver, as far as they will
go.
