Step-by-Step Installation Guide

This section provides complete instructions for the hardware setup of a

single Switch.

Important Note

Before attempting to connect anything to the Switch or to any computer, make

sure that everything is powered off. Plugging and unplugging cables while

computers are powered on can cause irreversible damage to your computers,

data, and/or to the Switch. Belkin Corporation will not be responsible for damage

caused in this way.

Connecting the Console

1. Power down all computers.

2. Connect your PS/2-type keyboard

and mouse to the KEYBOARD and

MOUSE ports located on the front

panel of your Switch.

3. Take the VGA cable that is

attached to your monitor and

connect it to the VGA port on the

front panel of the Switch.

INSTALLATIONINSTALLATION

Pre-Configuration

Where to Place the Switch

The Switch is designed for positioning on the desktop. The exact placement will

be based on the location of your CPUs and length of your cables.

Cable Distance Requirements

For PS/2 computers: VGA signals are best retained when transmitted up to eight

feet. Beyond eight feet, probability of video degradation increases with an

increase in distance. For this reason, your PS/2 computer should be placed

within eight feet of the KVM Switch.

Note: If your computer needs to be more than eight feet from the KVM Switch, you

can use the Belkin CAT5 Extender (part number F1D084) to extend your PS/2

keyboard, PS/2 mouse, and monitor up to 500 feet (152.4m) away using a

standard CAT5 UTP cable.

Cautions and Warnings

Avoid placing cables near fluorescent lights, air conditioning equipment, or

machines that create electrical noise (e.g., vacuum cleaners).

INSTALLATION

Powering Up the Systems

Once all cables have been connected, power up your CPUs that are attached to

the Switch. All computers can be powered on simultaneously. The Switch

emulates a mouse and keyboard on each port and will allow your computer to

boot normally. Your Switch should now be ready for use.

You can select which computer to operate through hot key commands. Note that

it will take 1-2 seconds for the video to display after switching. This is due to

the refresh of the video signal. A re-synchronization of the mouse and keyboard

signal also takes place. This is normal operation and ensures that proper

synchronization is established.

You can conveniently change ports on the Switch through a keyboard command

sequence using the “SCROLL LOCK” key and up and down arrow keys. To send

commands to the Switch, press the “SCROLL LOCK” key twice within two seconds.

You will hear a beep for confirmation. Then you can press the up or down arrow

keys to switch between ports.

USING YOUR SWITCH

Switch to next active port,

up arrow

Switch to previous active port,

down arrow

Connecting the Computer

1. Using the attached cables, take the VGA cable and connect it to

the VGA port on the first computer.

2. Connect the PS/2 keyboard KVM cable to the keyboard port on

the computer.

3. Connect the PS/2 mouse KVM cable to the mouse port on

the computer.

Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for the additional computer to be connected to

the Switch.

INSTALLATION

all-guides.com

You can switch directly to any port by entering the Switch port number you wish

to use. For example, if you press “SCROLL LOCK”, “SCROLL LOCK”, “2”, the

computer on port 2 will be selected.

AutoScan Mode

In AutoScan mode, the Switch remains on one port for eight seconds before

switching to the next. This time interval cannot be changed.

To enable AutoScan mode, press “SCROLL LOCK”, “SCROLL LOCK”, “S”.

Note: There is no mouse or keyboard control in this mode by design, in order to

prevent errors. If it were enabled, the user could move the mouse or use the

keyboard while the KVM Switch is switching to the next port. This could interrupt

communication between the computer and Switch that might cause erratic mouse

movement, or result in errant display of characters when using the keyboard.

To disable AutoScan mode, press the space bar.
