Connecting KVM Frame Grabbers
This section describes how to connect a KVM Frame Grabber to a
computerized machine to be managed and to the administrator’s
PC or to a network.
The KVM2USB device requires a USB connector between the
Frame Grabber and the video capture workstation, and the
KVM2Ethernet requires an Ethernet connection between the
Frame Grabber and the video capture workstation.
KVM Frame Grabbers provide full Keyboard-Video-Mouse
(KVM) capabilities that you can use to manage any computerized
machine with a VGA output and keyboard/mouse inputs from a
video capture workstation.
• If the computerized machine has a VGA port and PS2 mouse
and keyboard ports, you can connect the KVM Frame Grabber
directly.
• KVM Frame Grabbers also come with a PS/2 to USB adapter
that you can use if the computerized machine only has USB
ports for mouse and keyboard connections. The PS/2 to USB
adapter is used to connect the two PS/2 cables to a single USB
connector.
• KVM Frame Grabbers have a VGA video connector. However,
the KVM Frame Grabbers are compatible with most DVI to
VGA adapters if the computerized machine only has a DVI
port.
Note:
Before following the instructions in this section you should
install the Windows or Mac OS X drivers and application. See
“Windows video capture workstation Installation” on page 8
