CRYSTALVIEW INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL
Installation
Please refer to the safety section first before proceeding with any
installation or configuration of the CrystalView.
Installation of the CrystalView consists of four easy steps.
1. Setting the cable length jumpers/switch (if needed).
2. Connecting the cables to the equipment.
3. Applying power.
4. Adjust the video compensation (if needed).
For systems that only require running Video through the
CrystalView, (for viewing purposes only) and no keyboard or mouse
is needed, supplemental power must be supplied to the Local Unit.
The Local Unit gets its power from the keyboard port of the CPU.
Rose Electronics can supply a power transformer that connects to
the Local Units keyboard port to provide this power. This power
transformer (P/N KIT-KBPWR) can be ordered from Rose
Electronics.
When installing the CrystalView, locate it as close as possible to the
CPU. Keep the CPU and KVM cables are as short as possible but
still give some freedom of movement. Using shorter cables keeps
the video noise to a minimum and reduces installation costs. You
can mount the CrystalView in a CPU rack with the optional rack
mount kit. When mounting the CrystalView in a rack, follow the
instructions in Appendix F and Appendix G and assure that the
operating temperature of the Local and Remote Units do not exceed
the maximum ratings. Provide adequate air circulation to assure that
the maximum operating temperature is not exceeded. The MINI
model is not rack mountable.
Wherever the CrystalViews Local and Remote Units are located,
they should be on a secure surface and free from obstructions and
objects that may cause damage to the units.
When installing the CrystalView, only perform the installation steps
that apply to your model.
