CRYSTALVIEW PRO CAT5 INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS MANUAL
Installation
Please refer to the safety section first before proceeding with any installation
or configuration of the CrystalView Pro CAT5.
NOTE: If your CPU uses a DVI video card and the KVM station’s monitor is
a TFT (flat panel) DVI monitor, pixelclock and phase adjustments should not
be needed. Refer to the set-up section for mixed VGA and DVI equipment
installation. The CrystalView Pro CAT5’s design does not support plug &
play or a private mode on the local KVM access models.
When installing the CrystalView Pro CAT5, locate the transmitter as close
as possible to the CPU or switch. Keep the CPU cables as short as
possible but still give some freedom of movement. Using shorter VGA
cables keeps the video noise to a minimum and reduces installation costs.
You can mount the CrystalView Pro CAT5 in a CPU rack with the optional
rack mount kit. When mounting the units in a rack, follow the instructions in
Appendix D and Appendix E. Provide adequate air circulation to assure that
the maximum operating temperature is not exceeded.
Wherever the transmitter and receiver units are located, they should be on a
secure surface and free from obstructions and objects that may cause
damage to the units.

NOTE: Using a PC model with local access, a second
KVM station can be connected to the transmitter.
Refer to Figure 11 for the set-up for your system application.
