Installation

  1. Ground the CS1942ATC by connecting one end of a grounding wire to the grounding terminal and the other end to a suitable grounded object.
    Note: Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to the unit from power surges or static electricity.

  2. Connect your USB keyboard and USB mouse to the unit’s USB 2.0 Type-A ports.

  3. Connect your DisiplayPort-enabled displays to the unit’s DisplayPort output ports.

  4. Connect your primary microphone and speakers to the unit’s audio jacks located on the front panel. Optionally, connect your secondary microphone and speakers to the unit’s audio jacks located on the rear panel.
    Note: The microphone and speakers connected into the front panel have priority over those connected into these jacks.

  5. Using the provided cables, connect the audio, video, RS-232, and USB ports of up to 2 PCs to the KVM ports section on the KVM switch.
    Note: Make sure that all the connectors from one PC are connected to the same KVM ports section (all in CPU1 and all in CPU2).

  6. (Optional) Connect your USB peripherals to the unit’s USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports.

  7. (Optional) Connect your RS-232 devices such as a printer to the unit’s RS232 serial port from the console ports section.

  8. (Optional) To use a remote port selector for port selection, plug its cable into the RJ-11 port.
    Note:
    • To purchase a remote port selector for CS1942ATC, contact your ATEN dealer for more information.
    • To use a remote port selector for port selection, make sure to slide the primary / secondary switch to the p position.

  9. Connect the power adapters to the unit’s power jacks. Now the CS1942ATC is powered on.
    Note: We recommend connecting both power adapters to the unit for power redundancy.

  10. Power on the computers, displays, and the other connected devices.
