you should be able to switch from one input device to another. If this does
not happen, double check steps 3 and 4 and make adjustments as needed. See
chapter 5 for additional assistance.
Mounting the switcher
The switcher ships with four uninstalled rubber feet. If you are going to rack
mount the switcher, do so before cabling it, and do not install the rubber feet. If
you are not rack mounting the switcher, skip to “Tabletop/desktop mounting”
on the following page.
Rack mounting
To rack mount the switcher, use two screws on each end of the switcher to attach
the switcher to the rack. See figure 2-2.
