2. Installation
2.1 What you will need
Cables to connect the LINDY CPU Switch Smart to each of your PC keyboard,
video and mouse ports. Cable specifications are given in appendix A. (You do not
need to connect a mouse cable if you are not using the mouse).
A monitor with a standard VGA/SVGA (15 pin) connector that will work when
connected directly to each of your PCs. LINDY CPU Switch Smart supports low and
high resolution monitors.
A standard AT or PS/2 style keyboard. If you are using an AT keyboard with a 5
pin connector you may connect this to the LINDY CPU Switch Smart using a
standard AT to PS/2 keyboard adapter.
A PS/2 style two or three button Microsoft or Logitech compatible mouse or a
Microsoft IntelliMouse / IntelliMouse Explorer compatible mouse. If you wish to use
the mouse to switch the LINDY CPU Switch Smart’s channel then you will need a
three button mouse or an IntelliMouse.
( The LINDY CPU Switch Smart supports ‘Internet Mice’ that are compatible with the
Microsoft IntelliMouse. These are fitted with a wheel or other scroll control and
sometimes have additional buttons. Examples are: Microsoft IntelliMouse, Logitech
Pilot Mouse+, Logitech MouseMan+, Genius NetMouse and Genius NetMouse Pro.)
A suitable mouse driver for your PCs. Supported types are:
- PS/2 or RS232 two button mouse driver (any manufacturer).
- Microsoft mouse driver (including IntelliMouse).
- Logitech mouse driver (including two button, three button and wheel mouse)
Use of PS/2 and RS232 style mice with the LINDY CPU Switch Smart - All of the
mouse connections from LINDY CPU Switch Smart to PCs support either a PS/2 or
an RS232 mouse. LINDY CPU Switch Smart automatically converts from the PS/2
mouse commands to RS232 serial mouse commands. Serial mice types are
selected by using an adapter as described in Appendix A. The LINDY CPU Switch
Smart will operate without a mouse connected if you do not wish to use one.
