being recognised by the computers when they are switched on.
2.4 ‘Interface powered’ operation without the optional power
adapter
The AdderView DVI draws its power from the connected computers via the keyboard
cables. A single keyboard connection is normally sufficient to power the AdderView
DVI provided that the cable is no longer than 5 metres. If more than one computer is
connected then the power will be intelligently drawn from all computers. Cables
longer than 5 metres may be used provided that the AdderView DVI is already
powered by another connected computer or the optional power adapter. If you are
cascading the AdderView DVI to another AdderView DVI then a power adapter must
be connected to all AdderView DVIs.
2.5 Configuring your PCs
Configure your PC in the same way that you would if your keyboard, mouse and
monitor were all connected directly to your PC. AdderView DVI emulates Microsoft
compatible serial, IntelliMouse, IntelliMouse Explorer and PS/2 mice, so ensure that
your PC software is configured for a Microsoft mouse of the correct type. Refer to
the list of supported drivers in section 2.1.
