respective computer to avoid confusion.

• The recommended maximum KVM cable length is 5 meters (16 ft), a longer cable may result

your VGA card and your motherboard PS/2 port. If you need a longer VGA cable, please use
a VGA and PS/2 extender.

• The Power Jack polarity is center positive and the power adapter is DC5V, 2.5A.

• If you forget your “password” and it is changed from the default, please contact your supplier.
