The Bitronics DataSwitch has two buttons on top shaped like arrows. When
depressed, these buttons instantly “connect” the middle DB25 port (common)
to the port adjacent to the button. An LED next to the button indicates which
port is currently active.
To select Port A, firmly depress the button next to
port A until the LED next to the button illuminates.
The connection between Port A and the
common port will remain active until
Port B is selected.
