Daisy-Chained Host Adapters Up to 64 Host Adapters can be connected in a daisy-chain to a create a segment of CPUs that are controlled by a single user from a User Station. The first Host Adapter is connected to the User Station via the "OUT" port. The additional Host Adapters in the segment will have CAT5 cable going from their "OUT" port to another Host Adapter's "IN" port to enable communications between the user and each CPU in the system, as shown in Fig. 10.

USING THE PRIMUX CAT5 KVM SWITCH The PRIMUX CAT5 KVM System is designed to enable a user to control as many as 64 PS/2, USB, and SUN CPUs (any mixture of each) from a single User Station as much as 1000 feet from the farthest CPU. Control is achieved through the use of either the keypad on the front panel or On Screen Display (OSD) Menus. Access to one or more CPUs is determined by the security configuration of the PRIMUX as set by the administrator. Once user access limitations are def

INTRODUCTION The PRIMUX CAT5 KVM System (PRIMUX) is designed to enable the relocation of a VGA monitor, PS/2 or USB keyboard, and mouse from up to 64 PS/2, SUN, or USB CPUs by as much as 1000 feet. The PRIMUX is comprised of one PRIMUX-UZR User Station and at least one Host Adapter (HA-PS2, HA-USB, or HA-SUN) connected to a CPU to be controlled by the user. The PRIMUX-UZR User Station supports PS/2 and USB user keyboard and mouse (devices). This manual describes the installation and use o

PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION • Choose a location for the User Station such that cables from the keyboard, mouse, and monitor will reach it. • The CAT5 cables must be run between the locations where the Host Adapter will be connected and User Station is positioned. Be careful to route the cables away from any sources of magnetic fields or electrical interference that might reduce the quality of the signal (i.e. AC motors, welding equipment, etc.) . NOTE: The installer must ensure that all CAT5

INSTALLATION The Host Adapter The PRIMUX HA Host Adapter is designed to support PS/2, SUN, and USB CPUs. For PS/2 CPUs use HA-PS2, for SUN CPUs use HA-SUN, and for USB CPUs use HA-USB. Before installing or removing a Host Adapter, power down the CPU to be connected/disconnected and disconnect the power cord from the CPU. CAUTION! DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE CPU AND HOST ADAPTER IF POWER IS NOT DISCONNECTED BEFORE CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING CABLES. Installation of a PS/2 CPU Plug the cabl

Installation of a USB CPU Plug the cables of the HA-PS2 Host Adapter into the back of the CPU after disconnecting the power cord from the CPU. (See Fig. 3.) a) Connect the cable with the USB Type A male cable end on it to a USB Type A female port on the back of the CPU. b) Connect the blue 15HD cable end to the video connector on the back of the CPU.

Connecting the CAT5 cable to the Host Adapter Connect CAT5 cable to the “OUT” port on the Host Adapter. (See Fig. 5.) When properly inserted the cable end should snap into place. Also be sure to insert the Terminating Plug into the "IN" port on the Host Adapter if this is the only Host Adapter in the segment. Otherwise, see "Daisy-Chained Host Adapters" on page 9 to add more Host Adapters to the segment. NOTE: If an RJ45 wall outlet is being used, connect the other end of

Connecting the CAT5 cable to the User Station Make sure the CAT5 cable has been installed in accordance with the “Preparation for Installation” instructions on page 3. Connect the CAT5 cable to the “Cat 5” port on the User Station. (See Fig. 8.) When properly inserted the CAT5 cable end should snap into place. WARNING: Never connect the PRIMUX-UZR User Station to an Ethernet card, Ethernet router, hub or switch or other Ethernet RJ45 connector of an Ethern
