1. Set the DIP switches. If you have only one OmniView™SE, use the MASTER bank

setting. If the OmniView™SE you are using will be daisy-chained off another unit, use a

unique slave setting. Please refer to the next section for more information regarding

multiple OmniView™SE units.

PLEASE FOLLOW THIS INSTALLATION PROCEDURE EXACTLY. NOT DOING SO MAY

RESULT IN KEYBOARD AND/OR MOUSE ERRORS, OR FAULTY OPERATION.

WARNING: Before attempting to connect anything to the OmniView™SE or

the computers, make sure everything is powered off. Plugging and unplugging

cables may cause irreversible damage to your computers and the OmniView™SE.

Belkin Components will not be held responsible for damage caused.

3. Connect the monitor to the OmniView™SE. Using the attached cable, or the one

included with your monitor, connect it to the HDDB15 female port on the back of the

OmniView™SE labeled with the monitor symbol at the CONSOLE section.

2. Find a convenient place to put your OmniView™SE. Take note of the length of your

cables so that your computers, OmniView™SE, keyboard, mouse, and monitor are

distanced properly.

6. Connect the first computer's mouse cable to the OmniView™SE. If using a PS/2 cable

(Belkin Part# F2N036-XX), connect one end to the PS/2 mouse port on the computer,

and the other end to the PC1 PS/2 mouse port on the back of the OmniView™SE. If

using a serial mouse cable (Belkin Part# F2N209-XX-T), connect one end to a DB9 serial

port on the computer, and the other end to the PC1 DB9 serial mouse port on the back

of the OmniView™SE.

4. Connect the keyboard and mouse to the OmniView™SE. If you have an AT-style

keyboard, you will need an AT-PS/2 adapter (Belkin Part# F2N017).

5. Connect the first computer's VGA cable to the OmniView™SE. Using the VGA cable

(Belkin Part# F2N025-XX-T or A3H981-XX), connect the male end of the cable to the

VGA port on the computer, and the female end on the PC1 VGA port at the back of

OmniView™SE.

7. Connect the first computer's keyboard cable to the OmniView™SE. If using a PS/2

cable (Belkin Part# F2N036-XX), connect one end to the PS/2 keyboard port on the

computer, and the other end to the PC1 keyboard port on the back of the OmniView™

SE. If your computer has an AT-style keyboard port, you will need a PS/2-AT keyboard

adapter (Belkin Part# F2N018). If using an AT-cable (Belkin Part# F3A510-XX), connect

one end to the AT keyboard port on the computer, and the other end to an AT to

PS/2 keyboard adapter (Belkin Part# F2N017). Then, connect the adapter to the PC1

keyboard port on the back of the OmniView™SE.

8. Double check all the connections. Make sure the keyboard and mouse cables go to the

correct ports.

9. Repeat steps 5-7 for the remainder of the computers.

10.Attach the power supply to the power supply connector at the back of the

OmniView™SE. Plug this into any available AC outlet. You should see the LED or Port 1

on the front panel blink, and hear a beep. Power up your monitor.

11.You can now power up all of your computers simultaneously. The first computer will

show up on the monitor. Check to see if the keyboard and mouse work, as well as the

image displayed on the screen. If this is okay, press the CHANNEL button and check

the functionality of the other computers. If you find any errors, double-check all of the

cable connections.

NOTE: Avoid pressing any keys on the keyboard or moving the mouse if the currently

selected port has a computer that is in the process of booting up. This may cause

the computer to not detect, or initialize the keyboard or mouse drivers properly.

P73039_F1D102-eng_man.qxd 9/26/00 3:42 PM Page 7

The OmniView™SE has the capability to be daisy-chained to additional units for control over

more computers. Up to four OmniView™SE units can be daisy chained together, whether

2-Port, 4-Port, or a mixture of both. The example above shows two OmniView™SE 2-Port units

and two OmniView™SE 4-Port units daisy-chained together.

Each OmniView™SE unit is defined as a BANK. See diagram above for more information.

BANK numbers range from 0 to 3 for a total of 4 BANKs. BANK 0 is the MASTER bank, while

banks 1 through 3 are slave banks. The MASTER bank is the unit that connects to the console

keyboard, mouse, and monitor.

The DIP switches must be set correctly for proper identification and usage. See page 5 for the

actual settings. If you are using the OmniView™SE in a single-unit configuration, it must be

set as the MASTER (BANK 0). If it is to be used as a slave unit, then it must be set to any

unused unique bank number from 1 through 3.

Usage

P73039_F1D102-eng_man.qxd 9/26/00 3:42 PM Page 8

The OmniView™SE is designed to be able to cascade with the OmniView™PRO as well. In

such a scenario, it is recommended that the OmniView™PRO be the MASTER unit, and the

OmniView™SE units be slave units. This is shown in the diagram above. The OmniView™PRO

is an 8-Port, 19" (48.3cm) rackmountable OmniView™, having the same features as the

OmniView™SE, but adding On-Screen Display. When the OmniView™PRO is used as

MASTER, all of the other OmniView™units in the chain will benefit from the On-Screen

Display of the MASTER OmniView™PRO.

When the OmniView™PRO is used as the MASTER unit, 15 more OmniView™units

(SE and/or PRO) can be daisy-chained to the master. Only BANKs 1 to 3 can be used by

OmniView™SE units. BANKs 4 to 15 must be used by PRO units.
