The MiniView™ Micro (GCS62) allows access to two computers from a single
console (keyboard, monitor, and mouse). This cost effective way to access two
computers, without extra hardware, is highly efficient and easy to use. By allowing a
single console to manage both computers, the MiniView™ Micro eliminates the
expense of purchasing extra keyboards, monitors, mice, and the MiniView™ Micro
eliminates the extra space they would take up.
The MiniView™ Micro is small, portable, and fits right on or under your desktop. It
also comes with a built-in KVM cable set to simplify the installation. Setup is fast and
easy: plugging cables into the appropriate ports is all that is entailed. There is no
software to configure, and no imcompatibility problems. Since the MiniView™ Micro
intercepts keyboard input directly, it works on any hardware platform and with all
operatingsystem.
The MiniView™ Micro provides a convenient method to access the computers by
simple Hot Key combinations from the keyboard.
