(e.g. the Stop, Again, Props and Undo keys for Sun systems). Sun keyboards have 

more keys than standard PC keyboards which have more keys than Mac keyboards 

and so if you are controlling a mixture of computers that include any Suns you are 

recommended to use a Sun keyboard.  

 

  

A USB mouse. 

 

The LINDY CPU Switch supports most ‘Internet / scroll mice’ that are compatible with 

the Microsoft IntelliMouse and Sun and Mac mice.  

 

 

2.2 Mounting the LINDY CPU Switch 

 

The LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP has been designed to be used either on a desktop 

or mounted in a 19 inch rack. If the LINDY CPU Switch is to be used on a desktop 

then you will need to stick the supplied self-adhesive rubber feet to the underside of 

the LINDY CPU Switch. If the LINDY CPU Switch is to be mounted in a 19 inch rack 

then you will need to fit the rack mounting brackets to the side of the LINDY CPU 

Switch.  

 

 
2.3 Connecting your devices 

 

Ensure that the power is disconnected from the LINDY CPU Switch and all devices 

which are to be attached. Connect any keyboards, monitors and mice to the user port 

connectors at the rear of the LINDY CPU Switch (see figure 2). The individual 

connectors are colour coded for your convenience. If you are connecting several 

KVM (Keyboard, Video monitor, Mouse) sets then you do not need to use the same 

brands or mix of devices on each user port.  

 

Next, connect each computer system unit in turn using the LINDY interface cables 

that you have purchased for use with the LINDY CPU Switch Dual MP (see Appendix 

A for cable specifications and part numbers). These are colour coded and should 

connect directly to the various ports on your computers. Remember that the video 

quality is maximised if the cables are kept as short as possible. Where possible, 2 

metre cables are recommended as these will give very high video quality. Any 

unused computer connections can be left unconnected. The three main cables type 

are shown in figure 3.
