Chapter 1

Introduction

Overview

The CE750 is a USB (Universal Serial Bus) based KVM Extender with automatic signal compensation and RS-232 serial functionality that allows access to a computer system from a remote USB console (USB keyboard, monitor, and USB mouse).

Because it allows access to a computer system from a remote console, the

CE750 is perfect for use in any type of installation where you need to place the console where it is conveniently accessible, but you want the system equipment to reside in a safe location – away from the dust and dirt of the factory floor, or the harsh environmental influence of a construction site, for example.

The CE750 is also useful for control and security purposes, where you can have the system unit in a secure area at the same time that you put the console in the most convenient location for user access. This is ideal for managing highly confidential data systems.

The CE750 improves on previous designs by: 1) the addition of an RS-232 port, on both the Local and Remote Units – the RS-232 port on the Local Unit allows you to connect to a serial terminal for configuration, while the RS-232 port on the Remote Unit allows you to connect serial devices such as touchscreens and barcode scanners; 2) the addition of a dedicated KVM port section on the Local Unit so you can simply and easily include a KVM switch in your installation; 3) using inexpensive Cat 5e cable instead of bulkier, more expensive, standard cables, for a much neater, more convenient, more reliable data transfer connection; 4) its ability to sense the distance to the system and automatically adjust the gain accordingly; and 5) featuring a custom ASIC to ensure the utmost in reliability and compatibility.

Further CE750 key features are built-in 8KV/15KV ESD protection and 2KV surge protection, and picture compensation pushbuttons on the Remote Unit to adjust the picture on the remote console.

Setup is as easy as can be – simply connect the computer system box and local console to the Local CE750L Unit; run the Cat 5e cable to the Remote CE750R

Unit (up to 150 meters away); and plug the remote console into the Remote

Module.

Chapter 1. Introduction

Requirements

Consoles

Š A VGA, SVGA, SXGA, UXGA, or multisync monitor capable of the highest resolution that you will be using on any computer in the installation

Note: If you connect a DDC type monitor to the Local Unit, the monitor that connects to the Remote Unit must be able to support the highest video resolution that the DDC monitor can provide

Š A USB keyboard

Note: You can use different brands and models of USB keyboard on the

Local and Remote Units, but support for multi-function keyboards is limited to the standard 104 keys.

Š A USB mouse

Note: You can use different brands and models of mouse on the Local and

Remote Units, but only the left and right mouse buttons and scroll wheel features are supported. Other mouse features are not supported.

Computers

The following equipment must be installed on each computer that is to be connected to the system:

Š A VGA, SVGA, SXGA, UXGA, or multisync card.

Š USB host controller and Type A USB port.

Cables

Š For optimal signal integrity, and to simplify the layout, we strongly recommend that you use the high quality custom USB KVM Cable that is provided with this package.

Š Cat 5e cable is the minimum required to connect the Local and Remote

CE750 Units. Cable of a lower standard will result in degrading of the video signal. For best performance, we strongly recommend Cat 5e cable.

Chapter 2. Hardware Setup

Installation

Grounding

To prevent damage to your installation it is important that all devices are properly grounded.

1. Use two grounding wires to ground both units by connecting one end of the wire to the grounding terminal, and the other end of the wire to a suitable grounded object.

2. Make sure that the computer that the CE750L connects to and the monitor that the CE750R connects to are properly grounded.

STP Cable

(Cat 5e or higher) up to 150 m

11

CE750 User Manual

3. For increased grounding protection, use STP (shielded twisted pair) cable to connect the Local and Remote Units. There are two methods that can be used: a) In addition to the eight paired wires, STP cable also contains a grounding wire. Solder this wire to the RJ-45 connector as shown in the diagram below: b) The second method is to use the STP cable shielding for grounding. In this case, make sure that the shielding makes tight contact with the top inside of the RJ-45 connector as shown in the diagram below:

In either case, make sure that the sides of the RJ-45 connector make tight contact with the grounding contacts on the sides of the RJ-45 socket as shown in the diagram below:

Operation

Operating Modes

The CE750 USB KVM Extender has three operating modes: Local, Auto, and

Remote, as described in the table below:

Mode

Local

Auto

Remote

Description

Only the local console has KVM access. The remote console’s keyboard, video, and mouse input is disabled.

Both the local and remote consoles can have KVM access, but not at the same time. The console without access has to wait until the console with access stops inputting data before it can gain access.

The remote console has KVM access. Remote mode can only occur when the pushbutton on the CE750L is set to Auto and

the local console is idle. See note at the top of page 18

Note: The default operating mode is Auto.

Mode Selection

The Operating Mode Pushbutton, located on the CE750L’s front panel, controls the operating mode of the CE750 USB KVM Extender system.

Pressing the switch toggles through Local and Auto operating modes.

17

CE750 User Manual

Note: Remote mode cannot be selected. The remote console can get control only when the Operating Mode Pushbutton on the CE750L is toggled to

Auto and the local console is idle. If the remote console is then idle for more than five seconds, the local console can gain access.

Picture Compensation

The quality of the video display can deteriorate with distance. The Picture

Compensation pushbuttons on the front panel of the CE750R adjust the quality of the video on the remote console.

Depending on the distance from the console, if it becomes necessary to finetune the video signal. press the plus button (+) to increase the video signal gain; press the minus (-) button to decrease the video signal gain.
