INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL

DVI or VGA
The CrystalView Pro Fiber is designed to work with any combination of
VGA and DVI video cards and monitors. The ideal configuration is using a
DVI video card, a TFT monitor and DVI video cables. With this
configuration, no adjustments are needed. A set-up procedure may be
needed if you are using a VGA video card and a TFT, DVI monitor or a
DVI video card and a VGA monitor. The installation section of this
manual describes these procedures for different combinations of
equipment and cables.
Access Switching (PC (PS/2) only - Transmitter or receiver)
Access to the computer from the receiver or the transmitter is on a first
come, first serve basis. When a key is pressed on one of the keyboards,
this KVM station becomes the active station. The other KVM station is
inhibited until there is a pre-defined amount of non-activity from the
controlling KVM station. This pre-defined amount of non-activity time can
be changed from the 2 second default setting to 15 seconds by changing
the jumper settings. Switching can also be done by pressing both the
‘Left’ and ‘Right’ mouse buttons simultaneously.
Table 1 shows the jumper settings for changing the inactivity timeout and
the method of switching control to the transmitter or receiver. The default
setting is after 2 seconds on inactivity on the controlling KVM station the
other KVM station can gain control. The default method of switching
control to a KVM station is pressing any key on the keyboard or pressing
the left and right mouse buttons simultaneously. The top jumper (J2) sets
the inactivity timeout and the bottom jumper (J3) sets the switching
method (Keyboard only or Keyboard and mouse).
To change these values, carefully remove the cover on the RECEIVER
UNIT (8 screws) and locate the J2/J3 jumper block and install a jumper as
shown in Table 1 to set the timeout and switching method.
