The	CCS-XB	module	works	together	with	either	the	Adder	CCS4-USB	or	CCS-PRO4	switches	to	provide	LED	indicators	for	each	of	your	video	display	screens.	As	the	switch	activates	a	screen,	the	CCS-XB	module	activates 	the	corresponding	indicator	(which	can	be	attached	to	the	screen)	to	provide	extra	clarity	for	the	operator.			
Checking the firmware version (CCS4-USB switches only)
When	using	the	CCS-XB	module	with	a	CCS4-USB	switch,	it	is	important	that	the	switch	has	firmware	version	2.0	(or	greater)	installed.	If	in	doubt	you	can	check	the	firmware	version	of	your	CCS4-USB	switch	as	follows:
1	 With	your	CCS4-USB	switch	powered	on	and	with	a	USB	keyboard	attached,	press	and	hold	the	COMPUTER	button	for	roughly	six	seconds	until	the	display	shows	C.
2	 On	the	connected	keyboard,	press	F	followed	by	1 and	then	press	Enter.	The	digits	of	the	firmware	version	will	be	shown	in	sequence	with	a	short	pause	between	each.	For	instance,1 > 0 > 2	means	that	the	firmware	version	is	1.02	and	requires	an	upgrade.	
3	 Press	E	and	then	press	Enter	to	return	the	CCS4-USB	to	normal	operation.
	 If	your	CCS4-USB	switch	does	require	a	firmware	upgrade,	please	refer	to	the	Performing upgrades section	of	the	CCS4-USB	user	guide.

Connection 
overview
Steps to a successful installation
1	 Use	the	supplied	VSC46	CATx	link	cable	(A)	to	connect	the	CCS-XB	unit	to	the	OPTIONS	port	of	your	CCS4-USB	or	CCS-PRO4	switch.
2	 The	next	step	depends	on	your	switch	type:
•	CCS-PRO4	-	Use	a	standard	patch	cable	(B)	to	connect	the	network	port	of	your	CCS-PRO4	to	the	network	port	of	your	computer	(either	directly	or	via	a	network	switch	-	further	information	available	in	the	CCS-PRO4	user	guide),	or
•	CCS4-USB	-	Use	the	VSC40	flash	upgrade	cable	(C)	(supplied	with	your	switch)	to	connect	the	CCS-XB	module	to	the	serial	port	of	your	computer.
3	 Connect	the	supplied	LED	monitor	indicators	(D)	to	the	first	four	LED	output	ports	on	the	CCS-XB	module.
4	 If	your	switch	is	not	already	powered	on,	apply	power	to	it	now.	CCS4-USB	switches	need	to	be	re-powered	whenever	a	CCS-XB	unit	is	re-attached;	this	prompts	them	to	locate	the	CCS-XB	unit.	CCS-PRO4	switches	can	sense	a	newly	attached	CCS-XB	unit	without	the	need	for	re-powering.			
5	 Download	and	run	the	Free-Flow	configuration	application	from	the	Adder	website	(www.adder.com)	and	follow	the	instructions	given	in	the	latest	version	of	your	CCS4-USB	or	CCS-PRO4	user	guide	(also	available	from	the	Adder	website).	The	section	‘Configuring	LED	monitor	indicators’	will	show	you	how	to	assign	an	indicator	to	each	display.
 Note: Once the LED monitor indicators have been programmed, you can remo\
ve the VSC40 flash cable or network patch cable connections as these are not required for operation. You will need to reconnect them, however\
, if you alter the LED assignments.
