Hardware Installation
Once the drivers and software for the USB Crash Cart Adapter are installed on the
notebook computer, it can be plugged into the server.
Connect the attached VGA cable and the USB type A cable into the desired server. For
DVI-I (analog) computer systems, please use a DVI to VGA adapter (StarTech.com ID:
DVIVGAMF).
LED Indicators
Server KB/Mouse:
This lights up when the emulated USB keyboard/mouse is working.
It will blink briefly whenever the emulated mouse moves, or emulated key is pressed.
Constant flashing indicates some problem with the USB connection to the server. This
can happen if disconnected, or if the host’s operating system is not enumerating the
USB device.
Server VGA:
This indicates a valid VGA video signal is being received. It will be
off if nothing is connected (and in some power saving modes) and may flash if an
unsupported video mode or other trouble is seen with the video signal. This light will
not turn on, regardless of the video input status, until the adapter is connected to the
application software at least once.
User Console Link/Activity:
This lights up when a good connection to the laptop is
established. If flashing, it indicates the USB to the laptop is not connected or being
ignored. Blinks briefly when video data is sent to the laptop.
If all the lights are off, then this means the USB Crash Cart Adapter has no power from
either USB connection. Under normal operation, either USB port can provide enough
power to operate the unit. The USB keyboard/mouse emulation is always active, even if
the laptop USB is disconnected.
