OPERATION NOTES
PLEASE READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE 2X1 DVIKVM DL SWITCH
•
When turning on or rebooting your computers, the DVI DL Switcher must
be selected to the computer that is booting until the computer completes
the boot cycle. This step can be eliminated using the Gefen DVI Detective,
which stores the displays EDID.
•
If you loose your picture when switch from source 1 to source 2 or vice-versa
you will need a DVI Detective (Gefen part no. EXT-DVI-EDIDP).
•
If you are experiencing USB dropouts try using the switcher just as a USB
hub by only connecting the USB cables from your computers to the switcher.
Connect your devices to the USB out portion of the switcher and connect
your display to your computer directly. Start your computer up and try
switching. If your USB devices do come up normally then you will need a
DVI Detective to negotiate the video/USB signals for faster switching. If they
do not come up normally, contact Gefen Technical Support for assistance.
