Installation
Before you begin the install, make sure that all devices are turned off and powered
down.
1. Plug the external IR receiver into the receiver port (see above). The receiver’s cable
allows the receiver to be positioned 5.9 ft (1.8m) away from the switch.
2. Plug your monitor or digital projector into the blue female 15-pin port.
3. Plug the power adapter into the power port on the switch and plug the other end into
an available power source.
4. For each of your computers, use a standard PC HDB-15 cable to connect your
computer’s video cards to one of the eight video ports on the switch.
5. Turn on all equipment.
Using Your Switch
Once all your devices are connected and powered, you should be able to see LEDs on the
top of the switch and select your different computers.
Interpreting the LEDs
The numbered LEDs on the top of the switch indicate which computers are connected
and which computer is selected.
• An orange LED indicates that the computer connected to that port is online.
• A green LED indicates that the computer connected to that port is currently selected.
• When the LED is not lit, it indicates that there is no computer connected to that port,
or that the computer at that port is in standby mode.
