INSTALLATION
Prepare To Connect
1. Before connecting the KEEMUX to the CPUs, make sure all CPUs, the monitor, and the KEEMUX are turned OFF.
WARNING! DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE CPU IF POWER IS NOT DISCONNECTED BEFORE CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING
CABLES.
2. The dip-switches on the front panel are configurable for several tasks. Switches 1-6 are used for cascading actions (see
CASCADING on page 5) and switches 7 and 8 are for keyboard configuration. These keyboard configuration switches come
pre-configured with both in the “OFF” position. Do not change these settings, as this will cause the PS/2 keyboard to not
work.
FYI: Should switch 7 or 8 get changed to the “ON” position, it will be necessary to power-down the entire system
(including CPUs), change the dip-switches back to the “OFF” position, and then power the system back up. If it is
necessary to replace one PS/2 keyboard with another one, the keyboard can be hot-swapped without powering-down.
Refer to Fig. 1 for instructions on proper keyboard dip-switch configuration.
