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

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

reboot your PCs in order to get the switch to recognize the 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 (1920 x 1440 analog, 1600 x

1200 digital). 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.
