INTRODUCTION This VOPEX allows 1 IBM compatible CPU to support multiple users (up to 4, depending on the VOPEX model). The devices (keyboards and mice) of many different manufacturers can be plugged into the VOPEX when powering up. Also, any combination of devices will work. (e.g. a mouse on port 2, keyboards on ports 3 & 4). Hot plugging devices at any time is fully supported with the possible exceptions listed in “MOUSE SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS” (see page 3).
CONNECTING THE VOPEX TO THE CPU 1. Turn OFF power to the CPU that will be connected to the VOPEX before connecting or disconnecting any cables. WARNING! If power to the CPU is not turned OFF before connecting or disconnecting cables, damage to the CPU may result. 2. 3. Connect the CPU to the VOPEX as follows (see Figures 1 and 2): a) Connect a VEXT-3 cable from the video port of the CPU to the male 15HD port labeled "VGA CPU" on the VOPEX.
Installing the Optional Monitor(s) 1. Plug all monitors into AC power outlets. 2. Turn OFF power to the monitors that will be connected to the VOPEX before connecting them. 3. Connect a monitor to the VGA MON1 port on the back of the VOPEX. See Figures 1 and 2. Note: A monitor must be connected to the VGA MON1 port for the monitor device driver to function properly. 4. Connect any other monitors to any of the other VGA MON ports on the back of the VOPEX. Installing the Optional Mouse(Mice) 1. 2.
DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION At power up, the VOPEX uses the mode LEDs on the front panel to report some status. The sequence of events is as follows: 1. When unit is first powered, the LED state is indeterminate. 2. All LEDs are turned OFF, then flashed ON and OFF to indicate processor activity. 3. One LED for each keyboard detected is flashed ON and OFF. 4. One LED for each mouse detected is flashed ON and OFF. 5. The LEDs are left in the proper mode status (see “MODES OF OPERATION ”).
TROUBLESHOOTING If any problems are experienced with the VOPEX switch, follow the steps below to see if the problem(s) can be easily corrected: 1. 2. 3. Verify that all cables are securely connected. Verify that a monitor is connected to Port 1. If a user has both a keyboard and mouse, verify that they are connected to a Keyboard port and Mouse port with the same port number. 4. If a cable is disconnected: a) Turn OFF power to the CPU. b) Turn OFF power to the VOPEX. c) Connect the cable.
