Host computer links: Virtual Media
The LINDY KVM IP provides an ingenious feature that allows authorised remote
users to transfer files and folders to a host computer, such that they appear as
though presented locally on removable media. In order to use the Virtual Media
feature, the VM port at the rear of the LINDY KVM IP must be connected to a
standard USB port of a host computer or a switched USB channel of a suitable
KVMA switch.
For details about how to use this feature, see
To make an Virtual Media link
1 Connect a USB link cable that has a type B plug (more square than
rectangular) to the port marked VM within the COMPUTER / KVMA SWITCH
section of the rear panel.
2 Connect the plug at the other end of the USB link cable to a vacant USB
socket on the host computer or KVMA switch.
Note: If this connection is being made via a KVMA switch, ensure that the
USB port used on the switch is a non-interpreted or switched port, sometimes
labelled as ‘Devices’.
