Package Contents

Installation

1. Make sure that all your computers and peripherals are turned off.

2. Connect your keyboard, monitors, and mouse to the console ports (with the white

background) on the back of the KVM switch.

3. Connect each of your PCs to one of the numbered PC ports on the back of the

switch. You can use individual standard PS/2 keyboard, PS/2 mouse, and video

cables to connect the KVM switch to your PCs.

Note: Your KVM switch is powered by the PS/2 ports. Once your KVM switch is

connected to your PC’s PS/2 ports, the KVM is powered.

4. Turn on your connected computers. Do not perform any activities on the KVM switch

until the PCs have properly booted.

Using Your KVM Switch

There are two ways to access your connected computers: the front panel pushbutton or a

hotkey sequence.

Using the Pushbutton

Pressing the pushbutton on the front of the KVM switch allows you to scroll through your

computers sequentially.

Using the Hotkey Commands

A keyboard hotkey sequence consists of three keystrokes. Each hotkey sequence starts

with two Scroll Lock keystrokes. You must strike the Scroll Lock key twice in two

seconds or less in order for the hotkey sequence to be acknowledged.

you have installed the proper drivers for your mouse/keyboard.

• Try rebooting your KVM switch by pressing ScrLk + ScrLk + End.

• If your keyboard/mouse came unplugged while in operation, you may need to

reboot your PCs in order to get the switch to recognize your keyboard/mouse again.

Video problems

• If your screen won’t show properly on your monitor, first make sure that all your

cables are firmly seated in their proper ports.

• If your screen is coming up blank or striped, the resolution on your PC may be higher

than the maximum resolution supported by the KVM (VGA 1920 x 1440). Adjust the

screen resolution and frequency until they are in the supported range.

• If there is ghosting, speckles or stripes on your screen, there may be excessive

electromagnetic interference from an external source. Check the path of your video

cable for strong electromagnetic sources like motors or power cables. Try and keep

your video cables as far as possible from these external sources.
