Perform
the
following
steps

to
connect
the
KVM
signals
of
the
server
system
to

•
The
VGA
outlet
of
your

V
-IP
.
Warning
The
USB
standard
guarantees
up
to
500mA
power
per
single
USB
port.
The
V-IP
needs
up
to
700mA
current
and
therefore
does
not
work
on
USB
alone.
However,
most
of
the
current
USB
ports
provide
more
than
700mA
so
that
no
external
power
is
needed
to
power
the
V-IP
.
Taking
more
power
from
an
USB
port
than
specified
may
cause
damage
to
your
computer
and
is
therefore
not
recommended.
