Connecting the console
To connect an LCD console to a computer, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off your computer.
2. Insert the video (VGA) connector of the KVM cable into the video card connector on
the rear panel of your computer.
3. Identify and connect the PS/2 mouse and PS/2 keyboard connector to the correct
PS/2 ports on the rear panel of your computer.
4. Connect the AC power cord to the power inlet on the console. Connect the
remaining end of the AC power cord to an available power outlet.
Turning on the console
Make sure all cables and the power cord are connected properly. Using two hands,
grasp the rear of the drawer, lift the tab and pull the panel up and forward. This will
disengage the momentary on/off switch and the unit should power on.
The LED located to the left of the monitor panel should turn from orange to green,
verifying that the unit is operational.

After connecting the drawer and turning on your computer, you may need to
configure one or more of the following display settings to allow the computer to
display at the console’s native resolution. See Specifications on page 9 for the correct
resolution mode for your model.

Each video card has several controls that allow you to adjust the display settings,
however, the software and driver for each video card is unique. In most cases, you
can adjust these settings using a program or utility provided by the manufacturer of
the video card. Most video cards use the Windows Display Properties control panel to
configure the display. To open the Windows Display Properties, click the right mouse
button in a blank area of the Windows desktop and then select Properties. The Settings
tab usually lets you change the Color Palette and the Desktop Area (X by Y pixel
resolution).
Some video cards integrate additional features into the Windows Display Properties
control panel giving you an extra setup options that are flexible and easy to use.
Forexample, the control panel may include an Advanced Properties button, an
Adjustment tab, or a Refresh tab for changing other settings. Other video cards have a
separate utility for setting display properties.
Whenever you change the resolution, color, or refresh rate, the image size, position,
or shape may change. This behavior is normal.You can readjust the image using the
monitor on-screen controls. For more information on the monitor on-screen controls,
refer to Panel controls and OSD functions. For more information on configuring the
display settings, please refer to the manual that accompanied your video card.
Testing the console
To test that the console is working properly, perform the following steps:
1. Power up the monitor/keyboard drawer, and then turn on your computer.
2. Make sure the video image is centered within the screen area. Use the OSD controls
to adjust the image (see Panel controls and OSD functions) or press the Auto button
on the right hand side of the monitor.
Note: If the unit does not power up when the panel is pulled up, try pushing the soft
power on/off button on the left side of the monitor panel to power up the unit.

Note:You can adjust the horizontal and vertical position, contrast, and brightness to
better suit your video card and your personal preference.
Before you begin, make sure that power to all of the devices you will be connecting
to the console have been turned off. To prevent damage to your installation due
to ground potential difference, make sure that all of the devices being installed are
properly grounded. Once all peripherals have been connected, please power them on.
