Installation
Locations
Please consider the following important points when planning the locatio\
n of 
the AdderView Secure unit:
•	 Situate	the	unit	close	to	the	host	computers	to	which	it	will	be	connected	
and also the user console peripherals. 
•	 The	unit	requires	a	power	supply	input,	so	a	nearby	spare	mains	power	
outlet will be required. 
•	 As	keyboard	and	mouse	switching	codes	are	not	possible	for	security	reasons,	
the only way to...

Making connections
Connections to the AdderView Secure unit do not need to follow the preci\
se 
order given in this user guide, although if one or more systems must be \
hot-
plugged, connect these after all other connections have been made.
IMPORTANT: To achieve the high levels of signal isolation and low emissi\
ons 
profile that the switch is capable of delivering, it is necessary to u\
se the only the 
cables listed in the Additional...

To	connect	a	display	monitor
1  Wherever possible, ensure that power is disconnected from the unit and t\
he 
host	computer(s)	to	be	connected.
2  Connect a suitable VGA video display to the port labeled  within the 
Console section on the rear panel. Ensure that the securing screws are u\
sed 
to maintain reliable links.
 Note: We strongly recommend that you use a video cable that has been 
correctly screened against signal emissions (such...

Video display (EDID) information
The	Display	Data	Channel	(or	DDC)	communication	scheme	was	introduced	to	
allow	video	displays	to	provide	details	(using	the	information	format	of	EDID	
-	Extended	Display	Identification	Data)	about	themselves	and	their	capabilities	
to the computer’s graphic adapter circuitry. In most applications thi\
s is a useful 
and positive feature. However, in a highly secure environment this prese\

within the Safety information section of this guide. In particular, do not use an 
unearthed power socket or extension cable.
To	connect the power supply

Operation
In operation, the AdderView Secure unit allows you to quickly and secure\
ly 
switch between up to four systems. Strictly only one system may be acces\
sed at 
a	time,	whereupon	the	common	keyboard	and	mouse	(and	smart	card	reader,	if	
used)	are	linked	to	that	system.

Authentication checking (enhanced models only)
In addition to the anti-subversion scans that occur continuously, enhanc\
ed 
versions	(AVSC1102-XX	and	AVSC1104-XX)	of	the	AdderView	Secure	also	
provide a trusted mechanism whereby you can confirm their authenticity\
.
At manufacture, qualifying AdderView Secure units have a unique identity\
 code 
configured	within	their	circuitry.	On	request,	Adder	can	provide	you	with	an

Selecting computers
In order to guard against the possibility of malicious software and also\
 to 
minimize the chance of accidental switching, the AdderView Secure unit o\
ffers 
only one method to change between channels. All switching is done using \
the 
front panel switches.
