INTRODUCTION

The KEEMUX-P2 switch allows one user to access two PS/2 CPUs with only one keyboard, monitor and mouse. Internal auto-

boot circuitry allows both CPUs to boot simultaneously and error-free without the need for a keyboard, monitor and mouse on

each CPU.

Available Options

•A KEEMUX-P2 can be ordered that supports a hard-wired remote control (RMT-2-ST) for increased user control flexibility.

Add "-RMT" to the part number. (i.e. KEEMUX-P2-RMT) The RMT-2-ST remote (ordered separately) comes standard with

a 6 foot cable but a cable of up to 100 feet can be ordered (DKEXT-35/50/75/100).

•Audio support to enable user to connect stereo speakers to receive audio signals from connected CPUs- add "-AUD" to the

part number (i.e. KEEMUX-P2-AUD)

•RS232 support for alternative control using RS232 connection. Add "-RS" to the part number (i.e. KEEMUX-P2-RS)

•Dual Video option supports CPUs with two video outputs. Add "-DV" to the part number (i.e.KEEMUX-P2-DV)

USING THE NTI SWITCH

The switch can be operated by the front control panel or by keyboard control.

Front Panel Control

1. Pressing the touch switch on the front panel will toggle between CPU 1 and CPU 2 and connect the selected CPU to the

keyboard, monitor and mouse.

2. Holding down the "CPU SELECT" button for more than 2 seconds will cause the switch to cycle through 3 extended modes of

operation: SCAN, BROADCAST, and COMMAND (see below for Command, Scan and Broadcast Mode sections). Release

the button when the desired mode has been selected.

Keyboard Control

In order to control the switch with the keyboard, COMMAND Mode must be enabled. To enter/exit COMMAND Mode from the

keyboard:

Press

Command Mode

When the COMMAND Mode is ON, all 3 status LEDs on the keyboard will illuminate to indicate that COMMAND Mode is enabled

and the following functions are available: (NOTE: The user must exit COMMAND Mode in order to type to a CPU.)

Function: Keystroke:

SCAN Mode

SCAN Mode is indicated by a flashing CPU port LED. The switch scans to either port with a CPU powered-ON. That port remains

active for the configured dwell time (default time is 5 seconds) before switching to the other powered-ON CPU port. See

COMMAND MODE Section for configuring the scan dwell time.

NOTE: The keyboard and mouse must remain idle for the full SCAN dwell time before the switch selects the other port.

CPU 1 CPU 2 A flashing CPU LED means

P--(P0x would be P01 or P02)

BROADCAST Mode

(USE WITH EXTREME CAUTION)

BROADCAST Mode is indicated when both CPU LEDs are illuminated. This mode allows the operator to send keystrokes to both

active CPUs simultaneously. However, BROADCAST Mode has some critical requirements:

1. BROADCAST Mode must be OFF when booting an attached CPU.

2. COMMAND Mode must be OFF for keystrokes to reach attached CPU(s) when in BROADCAST.

Keyboard Features

The keyboard configuration of each CPU is saved in the NTI Switch. For example, if the CPU attached to Port 2 had CAPS LOCK

and NUM LOCK selected the last time that CPU was accessed, then they will automatically be set when that CPU is accessed

again.

AUDIO SUPPORT

(Optional)

Audio support provides the following additional features:

•Audio signals from the same CPU that keyboard, mouse, and video signals are from can be received by the user.

•Audio inputs accept any standard line level audio (1Vrms or 2.5Vp-p).

•Audio outputs are capable of driving an 8 Ohm speaker load with 200mW of continuous RMS power.

Audio signals are switched along with the keyboard, mouse and video signals using the buttons on the KEEMUX switch.

DUAL VIDEO SUPPORT

(Optional)

Dual Video support enables CPUs with two video outputs to be connected to the KEEMUX switch and two user monitors to be

connected to view both sets of video signals. Both monitors must be of the type VGA multi-scan.

CPU 1 CPU 2 Two illuminated CPU LEDs

means that the switch is

in BROADCAST Mode.

RS232 CONTROL

(Optional)

RS232 Connections and Configuration

Remote Connection

The RS232 Interface is designed to meet the RS232C standard and can be controlled from any host CPU or other controller with

an RS232 communications port. The pin-out for the DB-9 connector on the unit can be found on page 7. A straight through DB-9

cable (not null modem) will work for most CPUs.

Baud Rate

The baud rate of the host CPU can be changed by using the menus in the RMTEST program (see "RS232 Interface Test

Program" below). The desired baud rate of 9600, 2400, 1200, or 300 may be set. A data protocol of 8 data bits, no parity, and 1

stop bit is used for communications. The baud rate of the KEEMUX is configured using dipswitches (see page 7).

Unit Address

To allow multiple units to be controlled from a single host port, the RS232 control interface is designed to allow "daisy chaining" up

to 15 units. In order to connect multiple KEEMUX units together a Matrix-Y-1 cable must be used. (See Fig. 6). See Fig. 7 for

the pinout of the Matrix-Y-1 cable.

Dipswitches

The dipswitches located next to the RS232 connection (Fig. 8) are used to configure the baud rate and

address of the KEEMUX. The default baud rate is 9600. The default address is 1. Use the charts

below to change the baud rate and address as needed.

RS232 Interface Test Program

RS232 communication is configured using the RMTEST program, located on the supplied floppy disk. This software allows a

user to test the functions of an NTI KEEMUX or Multi-user/Multi-platform switch RS232 interface. The RMTEST program

generates a main menu with the 3 selections described below:

MAIN OPTIONS

1. Matrix Options - send commands to the unit.

2. Setup Options - set COM port, baud rate, and unit address

3. Quit - quit the program

DIP SWITCH

The unit powers up with a default

baud rate of 9600 and a fixed data

protocol of 8 data bits, no parity, and

1 stop bit. To change the baud rate,

unit address, and loop back (more on

the unit address and loop back later),

an 8-SPST DIP switch on the panel

near the DB-9 connectors can be

used. This table shows the DIP switch

functions and their default positions.

BAUD RATE

The baud rate can be

changed by powering

changing the DIP

switch, and then

powering back up.

to set the baud rate.

UNIT ADDRESS

To allow multiple units to be controlled from a single host

port, the remote interface is designed to allow "daisy

chaining" of up to 15 units. By setting the appropriate

DIP switches, each unit can be given a unique address

(1-15). Then the unit will only respond to commands on

the bus if its address is embedded in the command. The

"loop back" DIP switch should be ON for the last unit in

the chain, and OFF for all other units. If only one unit is

being controlled, DIP switch 1 should be left ON. This

table shows how to set the unit address.
