Making connections
Connections to the Adder TS4 unit do not need to follow the precise order
given in this user guide, although if one or more systems must be hot-plugged,
connect these after all other connections have been made.
System connections
To connect a system (PS/2-style connections)
Note: Two Adder VSC3 link cables are required per connected system.
1 Ensure that the computer system to be connected is switched off and power
is removed from the Adder TS4.
(Note: If it is not possible to switch off systems prior to connection, then
a ‘Hot plug’ procedure is available – see the Hot plugging and mouse
restoration section for more details).
