Figure 9 Connecting a DX User to the DX Central
4.1 Connecting an optional local computer to a DX User
A user can work on the DX system just with a KVM console. There is the option to
connect a computer to the DX User unit. A user can then work locally on this
computer.
To connect a local computer:
Connect a computer to the DX User using the 3 in 1 CPU cable, see Figure 9.
1. Connect the connectors of one end of the 3 in 1 CPU cable to the KVM
Computer ports of the DX User.
2. Connect the connectors of other end of the 3 in 1 CPU cable to the KVM ports
of the computer.
4.2 Connecting servers to the DX Central
You use RICCs PS/2 or XRICCs and CAT5 cables to connect servers/devices to the
DX Central. There are 4 types of XRICC:
PS/2, USB, SUN and RS232.
4.3 XRICC power supply
The XRICCs PS/2 and SUN draw their power from the computer’s keyboard port.
The XRICC USB draws its power from the USB port. The XRICC RS232 gets its
power either from a Power adapter or the USB port.
