It allows you to access, control, boot and reboot multiple PS/2-enabled computers using only one keyboard, video, mouse, and optional speaker set and microphone. It also offers user-programmable simultaneous/independent switching of PC channel and Audio/Mic channel for flexible multimedia application with KVM switching. For users who might need to use a hotkey preceding sequence other than two scroll locks, we also offer five key alternatives for free configuration. Before you install The default setting of the KVM switches is appropriate for most systems. The KVM Switch is a Plug-and-Play device for installation. In fact, you do not need to configure the KVM Switch before installation. For the first time installation of the KVM Switch, please follow the instructions below for correct setup sequence: The correct setup sequence is …… (1) Connect the shared keyboard, monitor and mouse (and optional speaker set and microphone) to the KVM Switch first, and then connect your computers. (2) Power up your connected computers… Since the KVM Switch receives power from the computer’s PS/2 interface, it is powered up when you connect the KVM Switch to a PC. Out-of-the-box Installation Take the KVM Switch out of the box and begin installation…. DO NOT TRY to connect the KVM Switch to the computers while the computers are still in powered-on states. Otherwise, the computer will have difficulty recognizing your shared keyboard and mouse. Step 1. Make sure all the computers that are to be connected to the KVM Switch and their peripherals are in powered-off state. If not, power them off before you proceed with the following steps. Step 2. Connect the shared PS/2 keyboard, mouse, monitor, speaker set and microphone to the KVM switch. Step 3. Connect each of your computers to the KVM switch, using appropriate KVM & Audio/Mic cables. Configuration Diagram Step 4. (Now your KVM Switch should have been powered- up….) Power up the connected computers one by one. After your computers are powered up, the keyboard and mouse will be recognized and now you can begin operating the KVM switch. Easy Operation There are two methods to control your KVM Switch for PC switching: using the face-panel push button or a hotkey sequence. For audio/mic switching, use the hotkey command. See Quick Reference Sheet Face-panel buttons The face-panel buttons allows you a direct control over PC port switching. Simply press the button to switch PC port. By default, PC port switching and Audio/Mic port switching are bound together (both will be switched simultaneously). If you want to enable the binding of PC and audio/mic port switching, use the hotkey sequence, ScrLk +ScrLk + Q. To disable the binding again, just hit ScrLk +ScrLk + W. See Quick Reference Sheet Keyboard hotkey A keyboard hotkey sequence consists of at least three specific keystrokes: See Quick Reference Sheet Hotkey sequence = [ScrLk]* + [ScrLk] * + Command key(s) * User-definable = SCROLL LOCK, CAPS, ESC, F12 or NUM LOCK Hotkey preceding sequence configuration: For users who want to use a preceding sequence other than two consecutive Scroll Locks, there is also one convenient way to configure it: Step 1. Hit ScrollLock + ScrollLock + H, then two beeps will signal readiness for new preceding sequence selection. [or Press and hold down the last front-panel button (Button 2 or Button 4) until you hear two beeps, and then release the button.] Step 2. Select and press the key you would like to use as your preceding sequence (SCROLL LOCK, CAPS, ESC, F12 or NUM LOCK keys are available for selection) and you’ll hear a beep for selection confirmation. Now you can use the new preceding sequence to execute your hotkey commands. Another way to activate the Hotkey preceding sequence configuration is to press the last front-panel button (button 2/button 4) for over 3 seconds to set the KVM switch into hotkey configuration mode. Then you select and press the key that you’ll choose as the preceding sequence. Each keystroke within a hotkey sequence should be pressed within 2 seconds. Otherwise, the hotkey sequence will not be validated.
