the Rear bracket & extension kit) and lightly fasten them onto the rear
vertical poles. Both will be removed later.

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.

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

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
sub-pixels.
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 o, 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 o )
• 5 total bright and dark dots (on and o 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.
