Welcome

Introduction

The Adder SmartView Multiscreen Serial is a four-way KVM switch

designed for systems using multiple touch screens. The unit allows a

single keyboard, mouse and (up to) two video monitors to control four

separate dual screen host systems.

Switching between the systems connected to the Adder SmartView

Multiscreen Serial can be achieved in ﬁve different ways:

• The front panel button,

• The optional Remote control selector,

• Keyboard hotkey combinations,

• Mouse button combinations,

• By external serial device control using the OPTIONS/FLASH port.

The Adder SmartView Multiscreen Serial is available in two models:

• SVMS4-S supports a single video monitor and serial device per

switched port,

• SVMS4-DS supports dual video monitors and serial devices per

switched port.

Serial line switching

In common with all other Adder switches, the SmartView Multiscreen

Serial provides completely transparent switching for the serial lines (in

unison with the keyboard, video and mouse channels). Apart from the

ground connections of each serial port (which remain permanently

connected), all RS232 signal lines are switched. No baud rates or serial

protocols need to be conﬁgured because no interpretation is made of

the signals as they are cleanly passed through the unit.

The video display(s) with touch screen(s),

keyboard and mouse are common to all of the

systems and are electronically connected to

the required one using any of four switching

methods. Switching can be initiated from either

the keyboard or mouse in addition to the unit or

optional remote control.

The display clearly

shows which system

is currently connected

to the display(s)

keyboard and mouse.

Installation

Locations

Please consider the following important points when planning the position of

the Adder SmartView Multiscreen Serial unit:

• Situate the Adder unit close to the systems to which it will be connected.

The Adder unit does not require a power supply providing that its

connection cables are no longer than 2 metres.

• Thanks to the remote control, the Adder unit can be situated out of sight

behind a desk or adjacent to the systems.

• Consult the precautions listed within the Safety information section.

SECT 3

Mounting

Before you begin connecting to the keyboard, mouse and source systems, it is

advisable to mount the unit in place, either:

• On a horizontal surface using the supplied self adhesive feet, or

• Amongst the cabling at the rear of the desk.

2 At the other end of the cable, attach the larger connector to the OPTIONS/

FLASH socket on the right side of the Adder unit rear panel.

Channel switching via RS232 control

The Adder SmartView Multiscreen Serial can be controlled by a remote RS232

serial device. To do this, the serial device must be connected to the OPTIONS/

FLASH port on the rear panel of the unit using an appropriate link cable.

OPTIONS / FLASH

The serial device must use the following speed/protocol settings:

1200 baud, 8 bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.

No handshaking is used by the SmartView Multiscreen Serial.

To perform the switching operation, simply send the character for the required

channel, for example ASCII ‘1’ (hex code 31) will select channel 1, ASCII ‘2’ (hex

code 32) will select channel 2 and so on. The SmartView Multiscreen Serial will

echo the ASCII character back to the sending device when the channel has been

changed.

Pin assignments for the OPTIONS/

FLASH port on the rear panel are

as follows:

Pin 9 = GND

Pin 10 = TXD

Pin 11 = RXD

Other pins to be left unconnected.
