Thank you for purchasing IOGEAR’s MiniViewTM
Mac Adapter, a Macintosh-PS/2 converter that
allows seamless integration of a Macintosh
computer into your existing KVM configuration.
Our Mac Adapter is fully compatible with older
Macintosh systems, the new iMac, G3 and G4.
Full Macintosh keyboard functionality is supported
on any PS/2 keyboard, while a second ADB port
allows your existing ADB devices to be used with
the Mac. Although this unit is fully compatible with
our PS/2 KVM switches, it can also be used as a
stand-alone Mac-PS/2 converter. We hope you
enjoy using your new Macintosh Adapter –yet
another first-rate connectivity solution from
IOGEAR.

Installation in a KVM setup:
Before installing your G-CV160, please make sure
your Macintosh is powered OFF.
1) Connect the PC keyboard and mouse ports
on the G-CV160 to one of the PC ports on
your KVM switch. Be sure the keyboard port
on the KVM switch is connected to the key-
board port on the G-CV160, and the same is
true for the mouse ports.
2) If you have an older Macintosh with DB-15
(Mac video) connectors, connect the PC
video port on the G-CV160 to the correspond-
ing video port on your KVM switch. If you're
connecting the G-CV160 to a new G3, G4 or
other Macintosh with HDB-15 video connec-
tors, you can bypass the video portion of the
G-CV160 and connect the video port on your
KVM switch directly to the Mac.
3) Connect the Mac ports on the G-CV160 to
your Macintosh computer.
4) If you have any extra ADB devices (beside
the typical mouse and keyboard), connect
them to the 2nd ADB port on the side of the
G-CV160.
Before installing your G-CV160, please make sure your
Macintosh is powered OFF.
Installation without a KVM switch:
1. Connect your PS/2 keyboard and mouse to
the PC ports on the G-CV160.
2. If you have an older Macintosh with DB-15
(Mac video) connectors, connect your
monitor to the PC video port on the G-
CV160. If you’re connecting the G-CV160
to a new G3, G4 or other Macintosh with
HDB-15 video connectors, you can bypass
the video portion of the G-CV160 and
connect the monitor switch directly to your
Mac.
3. Connect the Mac ports on the G-CV160 to
your Macintosh computer.
4. If you have any extra ADB devices (besides
the typical mouse and keyboard),
connect them to the 2nd ADB port on the
side of the G-CV160.
