A : Switch the console port to the problem PC port and power
on this PC again to get the mouse.
Problems with power supply
Q: The power switch is off, but the switch still works
fine or power adapter
Is unplugged from the switch, but the switch still
works fine ?
A: DKVM-8E draws the power source from power adapter
and PC’s PS2 port. Some PC’s PS2 port can support
enough power for the switch, but some PC’s PS2 port ( like
laptop, notebook computer…etc.) is unable to supply
enough power for the switch. In order to make sure the
system can work steadily, please do not set power switch
to off state or remove the power adapter from the switch.
Although the PCs connected to DKVM-8E are able to
support enough power to the stand alone switch,
DKVM-8E still needs a power adapter for daisy chain more
banks.
