Installation 2.1 What you will need Cables to connect the AdderView GEM to each of your PC keyboard, video and mouse ports. Cable specifications are given in appendix A. (You do not need to connect a mouse cable if you are not using the mouse). A monitor with a standard VGA/SVGA (15 pin) connector that will work when connected directly to each of your PCs. AdderView GEM supports low and high resolution monitors. A standard AT or PS/2 style keyboard. If you are using an AT keyboard with a 5 pin connector you may connect this to the AdderView GEM using a standard AT to PS/2 keyboard adapter. A PS/2 style two or three button Microsoft or Logitech compatible mouse or a Microsoft IntelliMouse / IntelliMouse Explorer compatible mouse. If you wish to use the mouse to switch the AdderView GEM's channel then you will need a three button mouse or an IntelliMouse. (The AdderView GEM supports ‘Internet Mice’ that are compatible with the Microsoft IntelliMouse. These are fitted with a wheel or other scroll control and sometimes have additional buttons. Examples are: Microsoft IntelliMouse, Logitech Pilot Mouse+, Logitech MouseMan+, Genius NetMouse and Genius NetMouse Pro.) A suitable mouse driver for your PCs. Supported types are: -PS/2 or RS232 two button mouse driver (any manufacturer). -Microsoft mouse driver (including IntelliMouse). -Logitech mouse driver (including two button, three button and wheel mouse) Use of PS/2 and RS232 style mice with the AdderView GEM -All of the mouse connections from AdderView GEM to PCs support either a PS/2 or an RS232 mouse. AdderView GEM automatically converts from the PS/2 mouse commands to RS232 serial mouse commands. Serial mice types are selected by using an adapter as described in Appendix A. The AdderView GEM will operate without a mouse connected if you do not wish to use one. AdderView GEM Installation and Use Page 9 2.2 Mounting the AdderView GEM The AdderView GEM has been designed for use on a desktop or shelf in close proximity to the user’s monitor and peripherals. The optional remote controller may be used if you wish to locate the AdderView GEM on a desk or shelf that is some distance from the monitor and peripherals. 2.3 Connecting your devices Ensure that the optional power adapter is disconnected from the AdderView GEM and that all the devices which are to be attached are switched off. Connect the shared keyboard, PS/2 mouse and monitor to the connectors at the rear of the AdderView GEM (see figs 1, 2 and 3). Next, connect each computer system unit in turn with the keyboard cable, mouse cable and video cable. Adder 3-in-1 keyboard/video/mouse cables are recommended for maximum convenience. Any unused computer connections can be left unconnected. To connect computers with serial mouse connections and AT style keyboard connections use the adapters specified in appendix A. If you have an existing 6-pin mini-DIN to 9-pin serial adapter that came with a mouse it may not be suitable for use with the AdderView as there are several different standard wiring configurations for these adapters. The AdderView GEM is now ready for use and will start to operate as soon as one of the attached PCs is powered on. If you are connecting to PCs using cables that are longer than 5 metres or are cascading the AdderView GEM to another AdderView GEM you will need to use the optional power adapter. When using the optional power adapter, ensure that it is connected to the mains and powering the AdderView GEM before you switch on the connected computers. Failure to switch the AdderView GEM and computers on in the correct order can lead to the mouse and/or keyboard not being recognised by the computers when they are switched on. AdderView GEM Installation and Use Page 10 2.4 ‘Interface powered’ operation without the optional power adapter The AdderView GEM draws its power from the connected computers via the keyboard cables. A single keyboard connection is normally sufficient to power the AdderView GEM 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 GEM is already powered by another connected computer or the optional power adapter. If you are cascading the AdderView GEM to another AdderView GEM then a power adapter must be connected to all AdderView GEMs. 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 GEM 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. 2.6 Configuring the AdderView GEM The AdderView GEM is supplied pre-configured with factory defaults which are suitable for most applications. There are a number of more advanced o...
