Installation and Use

LINDY CPU Switch USB

3.9 Querying the LINDY CPU Switch USB’s firmware version

For technical support reasons it may sometimes be desirable to know the firmware

version of your LINDY CPU Switch USB. If the front panel key is held down whilst

the LINDY CPU Switch USB is powered on then the firmware version will be

displayed as a sequence of numbers and characters. The three digits of the

firmware version are shown in sequence on the 7-segment display, one at a time,

alternating with the letter F. When the firmware version has been displayed the

LINDY CPU Switch USB will display and equals sign and resume normal operation.

For example the following sequence would indicate firmware version 1.23.

3.10 PC and Macintosh keyboard equivalent key mappings

If you are connecting a mixture of IBM compatible PCs and Macintosh computers to

the LINDY CPU Switch USB then you have several possible keyboard configuration

options. You may decide to connect both a Macintosh and PC style keyboard to the

LINDY CPU Switch USB and use the appropriate keyboard for the appropriate

system. Alternatively you may wish to use the same keyboard to control both

systems. In this case we recommend that you use a PC 104/105-key keyboard. This

has more keys than the Macintosh keyboard and so is more suited to universal use.

The equivalent key mappings on the IBM PC 104/105 –key keyboard and the Apple

keyboard are shown in the following table:
