information. In some cases it may be nessacery to unplug the mouse and
keyboard and re-connect to allow the USB ports to re-detect.
It may also be necessary to reboot your computer with the mouse and
keyboard directly connected. Once the device drivers have installed correctly
you may remove the mouse and keyboard and connect them directly to the
KVM switch console port. The windows operating system includes all relevant
USB device drivers so no additional drivers are required to be installed.
KVM switching options
Computer port selection may be made by any of the following:
o Front panel push buttons on the switch
o Keyboard Hotkey – configurable by the user
Front panel push buttons with white/red LED indicators
Press the front push button to select the appropriate port/computer. During the
switching process a white LED behind the switch button will flash. The LED will
remain on when switching is completed and the connections are established.
Depending on the configuration only the KVM ports (USB keyboard, mouse and
monitor) or KVM and USB 2.0 hub and/or Audio ports are switched. To learn more
about these options, please refer to the table on the next page.
The white port LEDs refer to the KVM section status, the red port LEDs refer to
the USB 2.0 hub section status and shows the port/computer currently selected.
Keyboard Hotkey Switching
The KVM switch may also be conveniently switched and configured using
keyboard hotkeys. This process is invoked by pressing a universal hotkey on the
keyboard twice within 2 seconds. The factory default setting for this universal
hotkey is the SCROLL LOCK button. The KVM switch can be reconfigured to use
a different hotkey from the following list: NUM LOCK, or CAPS LOCK, or F12 or
Escape (ESC) key.
Press the universal hotkey twice to invoke the switching function – the KVM switch
will confirm this with a short beep signal. Depending on the next key you press
you can select any of the available switching or configuration functions of the KVM
switch. Please refer to the following table for the available options.
