Hardware Requirements

The following equipment must be installed on each computer:
w A VGA, SVGA or Multisync card.

768, make sure that the computer resolution settings do not exceed
1024 x 768.
w A 6-pin mini-DIN (PS/2 style) mouse port.*
w Either a 6-pin mini-DIN (PS/2 Style) keyboard port with +5V DC on pin 4 and
Ground on pin 3, or a 5-pin DIN (AT Style) keyboard port with +5V DC on pin
5 and ground on pin 4.*
* See the note under Cables in the next section.
Cables
Substandard cables may damage the connected devices or degrade overall
performance. For optimum signal integrity and to simplify the layout, we strongly
recommend that you use the following high quality CS Custom Cable sets:
Function CS Part Number
Master View to Computer 2L-5201P - 1.2 m
2L-5202P - 1.8 m
2L-5203P - 3.0 m
Master View to Master View (Daisy Chaining) 2L-1700 - 0.6 m
2L-1701 - 1.8 m
Note: 1. The ACS-1208L/ACS1216L does not support serial mice. You cannot
use Serial-to-PS/2 adapters with the extender cables. Attempts to do
so will not work.
2. If your computer uses an AT style keyboard socket you will need to
purchase a PS/2-to-AT keyboard adapter (Part No. 2A-106, or any
standard keyboard adapter), in order to plug the cable into the
computer’s keyboard port.
