8. Once operation has been successfully confirmed, switch to the next port and power

up that computer/device and confirm.

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.

Operation

Front Panel

Port Selection/Link LED

The LED turns green when the connected computer is powered-on. The

corresponding LED will also illuminate red when that PC port is currently selected.

Port Selection Button

For 2 Port model, each push of the Selection Button on the front of the KVM switch

will immediately switch between the two ports on the KVM switch.

For 4 Port model, each push of the Selection Button on the front of the KVM switch

will immediately switch to the selected computer.

Auto Scan

The KVM automatically scans through the powered-on computers in sequence on

a fixed time interval (see Scan Time below). To activate Auto Scan, press down front

panel push buttons “3” and “4” simultaneously. The port LED flashes during Auto Scan.

Auto Scan is effective for powered-on computers only. To exit the Auto Scan mode, just

tap any one of the push buttons. (4 port model only)
NOTE: When Auto Scan detects any keyboard activity, it suspends the scanning until

the activity stops; it then resumes with the next computer in sequence. The length of

the Auto Scan interval (Scan Rate) is adjustable, see below.

Scan Time

Four options are available for users to set the Scan Time duration, which includes 3, 8,

15 and 30 seconds.
To change the Scan Time interval, press both front panel buttons “1” and “2”

simultaneously. The unit beeps 1, 2, 3 or 4 times for Scan Time of 3, 8, 15 or 30 seconds

respectively. (4 port model only)
NOTE: Scan Time is automatically set to the default of 3 seconds when the units loses power.
