Operation
Connect all peripherals and computers to the Flexi-Switch. Ensure that the video monitor(s) are switched on before powering on the Flexi-Switch.
Switching between computers
• Use the Source Selection buttons on front panel to choose which computer source to display on which monitor. The keyboard/mouse button is
used to control whether the selection is associated with the source connected to the Primary or Secondary monitor. A source can be duplicated,
by selecting the same number for both monitors.
• By default, mouse, keyboard and audio peripherals follow the display association. However, you can independently switch video, keyboard &
mouse ports between computers by using the keyboard/mouse button.

audio association will be signalled by the right indicator on each channel’s front panel push button.

Note: Ensure that all peripherals and computers are
switched OFF prior to connecting them to the product.
