Installation

Hardware Installation

1. Connect an HDMI monitor into the Console’s HDMI connector; plug a USB keyboard

and a USB mouse into the dedicated USB keyboard and mouse ports on the KVM

switch. If using audio, also connect speakers with 3.5mm mini-jack plugs.

2. Use a male-to-male HDMI video cable to connect the HDMI connector on the

computer’s video card, to the HDMI ports for one of the KVM’s PC ports (i.e. PC1).

3. Use a USB type A-B Cable to connect the KVM’s USB port (type B, square connector)

for the PC port used in Step 2, and the USB port on the computer (type A, at

connector). If using audio, connect 3.5mm mini-jack cables from the PC port to the

sound card.

4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for each PC port on the KVM switch, or each computer you

wish to use on the KVM.

5. OPTIONAL: Connect any other USB peripherals you wish to share between the

connected computers/devices to the extra USB Hub port on the Console side.

6. Connect the external power adapter from a wall outlet to the power connector on

the rear panel of the KVM switch.

7. Power up the rst computer/device and wait for it to fully boot and test keyboard/

mouse functionality.

8. Once operation has been successfully conrmed, switch to the next port and power

up that computer/device and conrm.

9. Once completed for all computers/devices connected to the KVM switch, you

should be able to switch between ports freely.

Driver Installation

No driver installation is required for the KVM switch, as the keyboard/mouse use USB

drivers that are already installed on any operating system that fully supports USB.

Instruction Manual

Operation

Front Panel

The front-panel Smart Touch button allows you a direct control over KVM switching

operation. Simply press the button to switch to the respective PC port. For more

operation about Smart Touch button, please refer to “Quick Reference Sheet”.

Hotkey Control

A Hotkey command is a short keyboard sequence for selecting a computer, activating

computer scan, etc. A hotkey sequence starts with two left <ScrLk> keystrokes

(successively within 2 seconds) followed by one or two more keystrokes. A built-in

tone generator creates a high-pitch beep for correct hotkey command; otherwise, one

low-pitch beep is generated for errors and the bad key sequence will not be forwarded

to the selected computer.

Please refer to the “Quick Reference Sheet” for available commands
