4.

Connect any other monitors to any of the other VGA MON ports on the back of the VOPEX

.

Installing the Optional Mouse(Mice)

MOUSE SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

NOTE

:

If the VOPEX is power-cycled with the CPU ON, the mouse driver must be reloaded for mice to function properly.

PS/2 MOUSE

1. Hot plugging limitations

A. Any mouse to be emulated must be connected to the first populated port at VOPEX power-up. e.g. If at a later time the

user wants to hot-plug 3-button mice, a 3-button mouse must have been connected in the first position at VOPEX power-
up.

B. If no mice were connected at power-up, VOPEX will default to standard 2-button mode.

2. ALPS

Glidepoint

A. For “taps” function to work properly, ALPS Glidepoint must be in the first populated port on the VOPEX at power-up and

ALPS Mouse Driver must be used.

B. Some Microsoft mice may conflict with ALPS Glidepoint. If a problem occurs, connect ALPS to first populated port and

use a regular Microsoft mouse driver. NOTE: ”taps” will not function in this configuration.

3. Microsoft Ballpoint

A. Do not connect Ballpoint to the first populated port if other types of mice are to be used in the VOPEX. If Ballpoint is in

the first populated port, all other mice must also be Ballpoints.

B. At least one Ballpoint must be connected to VOPEX when powering up in order for hot-plugging to work for other

Ballpoints.

4. 3-button Mice

A. A 3-button mouse must be connected to the first populated port for any mice to work as 3-button.

5. Microsoft IntelliMouse

A. All mice connected to VOPEX must be IntelliMouse to be able to use the IntelliMouse.
B. The IntelliMouse cannot be hot-plugged.

9D SERIAL MOUSE

1. Hot-plugging

A. If no mice were connected at power-up, Mouse Systems mode will be emulated and hot-plugging Microsoft mice will not

function properly.

B. All mice connected must be set to the same mode. (Either all Mouse Systems or all Microsoft).

POWER-UP SEQUENCE

Note: Any cable longer than 100 feet for the keyboard requires an AC adapter. If using a COMPAQ keyboard, the
adapter and the VOPEX must be powered up at the same time!

1. Turn ON power to the VOPEX.
2. Turn ON power to the monitor(s).

Note:

The monitor(s) MUST be turned ON before the CPU.

3. Turn ON power to the CPU.

Keyboards and mice are powered by the VOPEX.

POWER-DOWN SEQUENCE

1. Turn OFF power to the CPU.
2. Turn OFF power to the VOPEX.
