12 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 2.2 The Complete Package Before you do anything else with it, verify that you received everything you should have with your ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender. These components come with both models of the Extender: • The Extender’s Local Module.
13 CHAPTER 3: Configuring the ACS235A 3. Configuring the ACS235A This chapter describes how to configure the PC model of the ServSwitch™ Brand Fiber KVM Extender (ACS235A).
14 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS the JP1 , JP2 , and JP3 locations to deactivate the decoupling diodes (so that the Remote Module leaves the sync signals on the color signals), and remove the jumpers at JP9 and JP12 to disable VSYNC and force the sync polarity signals negative (see Sections 3.
15 CHAPTER 3: Configuring the ACS235A T able 3-1. Jumper Settings For all of these applications, to use AGC you must leave JP3 in the Local Module installed and keep the JP8 jumpers in the Remote Module on the left-hand posts.
16 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 3.2 Setting the Jumpers in the Local Module (Optional) There are six user-settable jumpers inside the Local Module of the ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender.
17 CHAPTER 3: Configuring the ACS235A 3.2.1 T HE VGA/RGB J UMPERS (JP6, JP10, AND JP11) If you’ll be using a VGA monitor in your Extender system, leave these jumpers set as they are (in their factory-default positions).
18 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 3.2.2 VGA- TO -RGB S YNC -G ENERATION J UMPER JP2 For most applications you should leave this jumper installed. However, if you are using the Extender to connect a VGA video card or other VGA source to an RGB monitor, remove this jumper as shown in Figure 3-3.
19 CHAPTER 3: Configuring the ACS235A 3.3 Setting the Jumpers in the Remote Module (Optional) There are six user-settable jumpers inside the Remote Module of the ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender.
20 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 3.3.1 T HE S YNC - ON -C OLOR J UMPERS (JP1, JP2, AND JP3) The Local Module of the ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender adds synchronization signals to the color signals for transmission across the fiber link.

26 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 4.2 Setting the Jumpers in the Remote Module (Optional) There are two user-settable jumpers inside the Remote Module of the ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender. They control these options: • Whether the Remote Module uses automatic (default) or manual gain control (jumper bank JP8 ).
27 CHAPTER 4: Configuring the ACS236A 4.2.1 R EMOTE G AIN -C ONTROL J UMPER B ANK JP8 If you’ll be using automatic gain control (AGC) in your Extender system, leave the jumpers ON the right-hand posts of each of the three pairs of JP8 jumper posts, as shown below.
28 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 4.2.2 VSYNC E NABLE /D ISABLE J UMPER JP9 It is possible to use the Extender to connect a VGA monitor to a legacy Sun computer that outputs Sun video with CSYNC superimposed on the green signal. (If you do this, make sure that jumpers JP2 and JP10 in the Local Module are both installed; see Section 4.
29 CHAPTER 5: Installation 5. Installation 5.1 Guidelines and Limitations for Attaching Equipment This section discusses a few things you need to keep in mind about the types of devices you can attach to a ServSwitch™ Brand Fiber KVM Extender.
30 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 5.1.1 CPU The ACS235A Extender supports IBM PC compatible desktop CPUs; it does not support laptops . A CPU must have these kinds of interfaces to work fully with the ACS235A Extender: • Video: VGA, SVGA, XGA, or XGA-2.
31 CHAPTER 5: Installation 5.1.4 K EYBOARD AND M OUSE The ACS235A Extender’s keyboard and mouse interfaces are standard PS/2 type interfaces, so you can attach just about any standard PS/2 compatible keyboard and mouse to the Extender. Do not attach serial mice or bus mice to the Extender; they will not work.
32 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 5.2 Connecting a CPU or KVM Switch to the Local Module NOTE In the universal directions in this section and in Section 5.3 , we’ll sometimes refer to separate keyboard and mouse connections even though there will only be one keyboard/mouse connection when the Sun Extender (ACS236A) is involved.
33 CHAPTER 5: Installation 2. Take the connectors at the other end of the cable and plug them into the equipment you want to attach. ACS235A only: Be very careful not to get the cable’s keyboard and mouse strands backwards.
34 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 5.3 Connecting User Equipment or a KVM Switch to the Remote Module NOTE FOR ACS236A Do not plug monitors, switches, etc., into both of the Remote Module’s video connectors at the same time. Take these steps to attach your user equipment directly to the Extender’s Remote Module: 1.
35 CHAPTER 5: Installation 3. ACS235A: Run a PS/2 mouse-extension cable from the switch’s PS/2 CPU- mouse port to the 6-pin mini-DIN female mouse port on the Remote Module (the port labeled with the picture of a mouse). (The switch’s CPU-mouse port must be PS/2 type.
36 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 5.4 Running Fiber Cable Between the Local and Remote Modules You’ll need breakout-style fiberoptic cabling with at least five fibers to connect the Extender’s Local Module to its Remote Module.
37 CHAPTER 5: Installation CAUTION! One of the most common errors in cabling the Extender is to attach fiber strands “1” and “2” to the Remote Module backwards (strand 1 to port 2, strand 2 to port 1).
38 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 6. Operation The ServSwitch™ Brand Fiber KVM Extender Modules should begin operating as soon as they (and all attached devices) are plugged in; the green and red Power LEDs on the units’ rear panels should light.
39 CHAPTER 6: Operation Three (AGC enabled only): Low blue. Even applying max AGC, the unit can’t equalize the color signals, of which blue is at the lowest level. There’s trouble with the blue transmit diode, fiber, or receive diode. F: Contrast is turned up too high at the Remote Module for AGC to work properly.
40 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 6.2 Making Video Adjustments with the Remote Module’ s User Controls If the image from your computer that’s displayed on the remote monitor is badly distorted, this might be the result of a video-signaling problem.
41 CHAPTER 7: Troubleshooting 7. T roubleshooting 7.1 Things to T ry First Here are a few problems that sometimes occur in a ServSwitch™ Brand Fiber KVM Extender system, along with possible causes and solutions. Problem: I can’t get a picture on my monitor screen.
42 SERVSWITCH™ BRAND FIBER KVM EXTENDERS 7.2 Calling Black Box If you determine that your ServSwitch Brand Fiber KVM Extender is malfunctioning, do not attempt to alter or repair the unit . It has no user-serviceable components. Contact Black Box Technical Support at 724-746-5500.
