2-12 Vertigo XG Installation & Quick Start Guide
Installation and quick start instructions
To cable the Vertigo XG:
1.
Connect the two (2) AC power cables to the power supply sockets on the rear
panel of the Vertigo XG chassis.
WARNING
DO NOT plug the power cables into AC power sockets yet.
2. Connect the Keyboard and Mouse to the USB connectors on the rear panel of the
Vertigo XG. Two PS/2 connections are also available on the rear panel, should you
prefer to use another type of keyboard and mouse.
3. Connect to a computer monitor to one of the two (2) DVI connectors on the rear
panel of the Vertigo XG. If you prefer, you can use the
VGA/DVI monitor adapter to
connect the Vertigo XG device to VGA monitor.
N OTE
Although there are two (2) DVI connectors, the Vertigo XG can display to only one monitor.
Therefore, it does not matter which of the two connectors the monitor’s cable is connected to.
4. Connect the Vertigo XG device to the Local Area Network (LAN) by connecting
ethernet cables to the two (2) Network Ethernet connectors.
The Vertigo XG’s two network ethernet adapters are teamed together (connect 2 cables to
the 2 NIC cards at the same time) to form a third virtual adapter. In the event of an adapter,
cable or switch failure, the network interface fails over to the healthy adapter. Consult the
Vertigo XG Configuration Guide for more details.
If you only have one cable connected, then the teaming is still in effect, but all traffic will be
over that one cable. If that NIC fail, you will have to manually move the cable to the other NIC.
5. Connect the Video breakout cable to the Vertigo XG’s SDI Video card I/O connector.
