Ports sections.

–Connect peripherals which are due to be shared by the KVM

to the Console ports.

–Connect each computer that requires access to the shared

peripherals to a Computer port group.

–Make sure that every computer is connected to a separate

Computer port group.

–Computer port group numbers are represented by push

buttons on the product’s front panel.

–Switch peripherals between computers by pressing the push

buttons on the product’s front panel.

Step 1 – Connect peripherals to the KVM Console ports:

•Keyboard: Connect either a USB or PS/2 keyboard to the

corresponding KVM console keyboard port.

•Video: Connect the monitor cable to the KVM console video port.

procedure. In case of self- test failure for any reason, including jammed buttons,

the product will be Inoperable. Self-test failure will be indicated by abnormal LED

behavior – for further information please refer to the KVM setup guide.

Step 4 – Reset to Factory Defaults

OPERATION

Operating the KVM

Front Panel Push-Buttons

•Following power up, the default channel is #1.

•Select any other channel by pressing the appropriate front panel

push button.

•The mouse cursor will be positioned at the center of the selected

computer display.

•The currently selected channel is indicated by the illumination of

the appropriate push-button.

Filtered USB Port (fUSB) Operation

•This product is equipped with a fUSB port which by default

accepts only USB authentication devices (smart card / biometric

readers).

•When a legitimate USB device is connected to the fUSB console

port the fUSB status LED on the front panel is illuminated with

steady GREEN.

•When a non-legitimate USB device is connected to the fUSB

console port the fUSB status LED on the front panel is illuminated

with steady RED.

•Once switching between channels, for example from channel #1

to channel #3, the USB device which is connected to the fUSB port

is automatically switched accordingly. This is indicated by channel

#3 fUSB LED turning steady GREEN.

•When switching to a channel that has no USB fUSB connection,

the fUSB Port remains mapped to the last channel that had a fUSB

connection.

•Press the freeze USB button on the front panel to assign the fUSB

port to a specific computer. Freeze USB prevents switching the

fUSB port while the keyboard, video, mouse and audio peripherals

are switched between computers. Freeze USB is useful for various

scenarios, for instance, when a USB smart card reader must

remain mapped to a certain computer.
