Operation

There are two methods to control your KVM Switch for PC and Audio/Mic channel

selection: front panel pushbuttons or keyboard hotkey sequence.

Front Panel Pushbuttons

The front panel pushbuttons provide direct control over KVM switching operation.

Simply press the button to switch to the corresponding PC port (as well as the audio/

mic channel ports and USB Hub if binding is enabled). By default, PC port switching,

audio/mic port switching, and USB Hub port switching are all bound together, unless

you bind the audio to a specific port.
Please note: You can use the front panel pushbuttons to switch to an empty port

(not connected to a host computer), however the keyboard hotkey sequence cannot

perform this same action.
