Assembly
1. Choose a proper position for the rack drawer. Mount the rear brackets
(from the Rear bracket & extension kit) and lightly fasten them onto the
rear vertical poles. Both will be removed later.
2. Remove the safety stopper from the console drawer. The safety
stopper is designed to prevent the drawer from sliding out during
transportation. Please note that once the Safety Stopper is removed,
the drawer is free to slide out when the console is tilted. Be cautious,
as this could cause injury.

Installation
Please note: You can only connect to a computer using either the PS/2
or USB port not both simultaneously.

Connect the standard VGA cable and a USB A-B cable to the computer
and 1UCABCONS as shown below. The computer can be a USB-ready
PC, Sun, HP server, or a Mac.

Connecting to a PS2 Controlled Computer
Connect the standard VGA cable and two mini-DIN6 male-to-male cables
to the computer and 1UCABCONS as shown below. There are two miniDIN6 female connectors marked with keyboard and mouse, be sure not to
swap the connections.
Connecting to a KVM Switch
When cascading with a KVM switch, 1UCABCONS can be used to control
up to 16 computers. The connection is exactly the same as is shown
above (see Connecting to a USB Controlled Computer, or Connecting to
a PS/2 Controlled Computer). The only difference is the connection would
be made to the “CONSOLE PORT” (could be “PS/2” or “USB” interface) of
the KVM switch instead, of a computer.
Please choose either PS/2 or USB to connect, prior to turning on
your computer!

Screen Quality & Pixel Policy
During the manufacturing process, certain cosmetic imperfections can occur which do not constitute defects
in the screen requiring an RMA replacement. Defective or “dead” pixels or sub-pixels are common to all
manufacturers of LCD displays. Visual imperfections are caused by one or more defective pixels or subpixels.
A pixel is comprised of one red, one green, and one blue sub-pixel. If a defective whole pixel is always on,
it will appear as a bright spot, typically white, yellow or other bright color, while if it is always off, it will
appear as a dark brown of black spot visible on a bright background. A defective sub-pixel is less visible than
a defective whole pixel as it is smaller, and dependent on the color of the defective sub-pixel as contrasted
to the background color.
A display is not deemed defective if it contains less than and up to:
• 3 bright dots (pixel always on)
• 5 dark dots (pixel always off)
• 5 total bright and dark dots (on and off pixels)
If your display appears to have defective pixels or sub-pixels, or if you should have any questions relating to
this policy, please contact StarTech.com technical support either by phone, online live chat, or email.
