c) DVI Monitor Connect the DVI monitor to the DVI-D connector on the backpanel of the Switch marked "MONITOR IN".
Or in the case of the D2, D3, and D4 series MegaSwitch
Connect the DVI Monitor A to the DVI-D connector on the back panel of the Switch marked "MONITOR-A IN". Repeat for
Monitors B, C, and D, as required.
d) Hub Support The Switch supports one level of hub at its USB Type A inputs, marked "IN-1" and “IN-2”. You have the
option to connect devices to the Switch directly or via a hub. You can connect a hub, either an external hub or one built into
a device, such as a keyboard, to either or both of the two USB Type A inputs. Devices can be connected either to a hub or
directly to the Switch. The total number of active devices is limited to two. If more than two devices are connected, the
additional devices will not be recognized by the Switch. In such a case, if the excess devices are unplugged, the remaining
two devices will become operational.
3. Connect the Power Supply to the Video Switch:
The Video Switch is powered by an external wall plug-in supply the VIP-210 (+5Vdc 1A reg. 110 - 240 Vac 50 - 60 Hz).
First plug the power output plug of this external supply into the mating jack on the backpanel of the Video Switch marked
"+5VDC IN", and only then plug the supply into a suitable AC power source. Since the Video Switch has no separate power
on/off switch, it is recommended that the power supply be connected to an AC power source that has a power on/off
switch.
