Cable Locking Mechanism
Cables on the Compaq Rack Keyboard with Hot Keys and Trackball have a locking
mechanism to provide a secure cable connection. You must use proper procedures when
disconnecting these cables.
To disconnect the keyboard cable properly:
Grasp the housing.
Slide it back to release the locking mechanism.
Remove the cable.
To insert the cable, simply plug it into the appropriate connector. The locking mechanism automatically
locks the cable in place.
If you are connecting the keyboard to a switchbox, connect the cables to the switch in this order:
1. Mouse
2. Video
3. Keyboard
This cable connection sequence is particularly important later when you install new devices to your system.
You can connect a mouse and/or keyboard to the switch when the system is running. When you connect the
new device, the switch recognizes the device and configures it to the settings of the currently selected
computer. This allows you to replace failed devices without having to restart the system.
CAUTION: Failure to follow proper disconnect procedures could
result in damage to the cable or your unit.
