Страница: 8 / 52

GETTING STARTED
To acquaint you with your UltraView unit, this manual first describes
UltraView’s front and rear panels. Installation and operation instructions
begin with the
Quick setup system wiring guide
on page 5. This
easy-to-understand diagram illustrates how to connect UltraView to your
CPUs, monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Information for setting up a
UltraView expansion system is given in the
UltraView expansion
section
starting on page 10. Also see the
Keyboard command summary
on page 36.
Package contents
Your UltraView package includes the UltraView unit, a power transformer,
your warranty registration card, and this manual.
Cable requirements
UltraView connects to each CPU with a CPU Adapter Cable and to the
monitor, keyboard, and mouse with an MKM Adapter Cable. These cables
are most commonly purchased with the UltraView and will provide quick and
trouble-free operation.
Appendix E
lists the most common cables. Cables
and accessories are available from Rose Electronics.
To add more CPUs to a fully populated unit, you must connect slave units to
the master UltraView. To do this you need a switch to switch cable for each
slave unit. By connecting 16 units each with 16 ports you can expand up to
256 computers.
Most installations use cable no longer than 20 feet in length. Cable length
will affect the quality of the video, depending upon which resolution you will
be using. You can improve the video resolution and distance by ordering
coax cables, see A
ppendix E
and
Table 4 Video Distance Capability
.
Locating the unit
The UltraView unit is best located as close to the CPUs as possible. This will
reduce the length of the CPU cables and provide a more cost-effective and
neater installation. Some installations use a rack in which to mount the
CPUs, some use shelves, and others may use a free-standing
arrangement. Quite often UltraView will be mounted in a rack with the
optional rackmount kit, see page 33. Many customers will purchase a longer
MKM adapter cable and put the monitor, keyboard, and mouse on a desk
leaving the UltraView near the CPUs.
