Wireless Dongle Kit conguration options:
Some Wireless Dongle Kits will connect directly to an instrument using
only an Adapter Set conguration, while other Wireless Dongle Kits will
connect to an instrument using only an Extension Cable conguration.
In some instances a Wireless Dongle Kit can connect to an instrument
using either conguration. For those installations it is up to the user to
decide whether you prefer to connect directly using the Adapter Set or if
you prefer to use the Extension Cable to hide the Wireless Dongle from
view behind a counter or under an instrument table.
Follow the instructions for your specic instrument.
NOTE: Your Wireless Dongle Kit may be designed to connect in multiple congurations,
so you may not use all the parts included in this kit for your specic installation.
Connecting a RK600:
The RK600 Auto Refractor/Keratometer uses the Extension Cable
conguration to connect to the Wireless Dongle Kit. The serial port (A)
on the side of the RK600 is where the Wireless Dongle will connect.
Before you can connect the Extension Cable and Wireless Dongle, you
must rst connect the DB25 to DB9 converter 4to the RK600 serial port.

Once the DB25 to DB9 converter is connected to the RK600 serial port,
you can connect the Extension Cable and Wireless Dongle.The Wireless
Dongle will need to be powered by the AC-Power Supply.
Using the Extension Cable conguration you can run the Wireless
Dongle to a location hidden from view, such as under the instrument
table. Cable Tie Mounts and Cable Ties are provided to secure any
cables or hide them from view. Fasteners are provided to adhere the
Wireless Dongle to the desired location.
