Basic Operation
Powering Off and Restarting
In the event that you need to power off the KVM switch, you must follow the steps below:
1. Shut down all computers connected to the KVM switch.
2. Unplug the power supply from the KVM switch.
3. Wait 10 seconds and then plug the power supply back into the KVM switch.
4. Power on all of the connected computers.
3
Connect your microphone and speakers to the corresponding console 3.5 mm jacks
on the front panel or the back panel. The jacks on the front panel of the unit will take
priority over those on the back panel.
4
Connect the console end of the KVM Cable Kit to any available computer ports on
the back panel of the unit. The connectors and ports on both the KVM Cable Kits and
the KVM switch are color-coded/marked for easy installation. Note: As each set of
computer ports are not perfectly aligned, make sure that the connectors on the KVM
Cable Kit are connected to the same set of computer ports.
5
Connect the computer end of the KVM Cable Kit to the corresponding ports on the
computer you wish to connect. Note: The B006-VUA4-K-R comes with four 4-ft. USB
KVM Cable Kits. If you need a longer cable, you will have to purchase a separate P756-
Series USB KVM Cable Kit of the appropriate length. If you wish to connect to a PS/2
computer, you will need to purchase a P757-Series PS/2 KVM Cable Kit. Computers
connected using a P757-Series PS/2 KVM Cable Kit will not be able to use the built-in
USB 2.0 hub functionality.
6
Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each computer you are connecting.
7
Connect the included power supply to the KVM switch, and then plug it into an
appropriate power source. To help protect your system from sudden transient increases
and decreases in electrical power, it is recommended that you plug your devices into a
Tripp Lite Surge Suppressor, Line Conditioner, or Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
8
Connect up to two USB 2.0 peripherals to the USB 2.0 peripheral ports on the front and
back of the unit.
9
Turn on the power to all connected devices.
10
When the login screen appears, enter in the default Username (Administrator) and
Password
(Password). For security purposes, it is strongly recommended that you
change these to something unique. (See page 21 for details on changing the Password.)
