Operation
General use
In use, the X200 module should be transparent - the system and its peripherals
should operate exactly as normal, the only difference being that they are now
a long distance apart and two computer systems (or more when used with an
AdderView CATx switch) can be viewed from a single set of peripherals.
In some installations, you may see some ‘shadows’ to the right of high contrast
screen characters. This can be caused by an incorrectly selected sharpness setting
and it may be necessary to make adjustments to correct this. Please see

Locking and unlocking the system
In situations where the computer systems (and their local CAMs) can be locked
away, the X200 module offers a viable security system to deter unauthorised
use. Once a password has been set, a simple key sequence allows each system
to be quickly and securely detached from the common peripherals. Only the
correct password will reconnect the remote and local modules.
