Thank you for purchasing this INTELLINET NETWORK SOLUTIONS
™
KVM Extender USB / PS/2, Model 524476.
Supporting distances of up to 150 meters (450 feet) using inexpensive
Cat5 network cable, this handy device — including both station and
computer units in one package — is perfect for the network administrator
whose ofce is too far from the computer room for standard KVM cables
to work properly.
The dual-console operation allows a keyboard and mouse to be attached
to a computer locally with another set attached remotely, providing you
with the ability to operate the computer from either location; that is, from
the distant ofce or from within the computer room.
The instructions in this user manual make installation and operation
relatively simple, so you’ll soon be enjoying the benets of these
additional features:
• Supports XGA, VGA and SVGA systems
• Supports video resolutions up to 1024 x 768
• Supports PS/2 mice and keyboards
• Computer connection to transmitter unit via 3-in-1 cable (included)
• Compatible with all PS/2- and USB-equipped computer systems
• Lifetime Warranty

Console LED Status Control Description
Remote off; Local on Console unit controls its local PC.
Remote on; Local off Console unit is remotely taking control of the
Computer unit. In this mode,
1. The Computer unit is now taking control of
the system if the 3 LEDs (Num, Caps and
Scroll Lock ) on the keyboard are ashing or
2. The system is waiting for either unit to take
control if the 3 LEDs (Num, Caps and Scroll
Lock) on the keyboard are not ashing.
Computer LED Status Control Description
Remote off; Local on Computer unit controls its local PC or KVM
switches. In this mode, the Console unit can
not take control of the Computer unit remotely.
Remote on; Local off Console unit is remotely taking control of the
Computer unit.
Flashing alternately The system is waiting for either unit to take
control (Auto mode).
Console (Station)
Unit Button Control Description
Pressing this button switches between Local and Remote modes.
Local mode The Local LED is lit, indicating that the system
controls its local computer.

Unit Button Control Description
Pressing this button switches modes in Auto–Local–Remote sequence.
Auto mode The Remote and Local LEDs ash alternately.
The system is now waiting to take control from
either unit. Once the keyboard or mouse of the
Computer unit is in use, the Local LED is on
and the Remote LED is off, indicating that the
Computer unit is now controlling the system
(and vice versa for the Console [Station] unit).
Select a latch time (5, 15, 30 or 60 seconds are
the displayed options) at which the designated
unit resumes functioning in Auto mode after
keyboard/mouse activity has interrupted it.
Local mode The Local LED is lit, indicating that the system
is being controlled by the Computer unit. This
status is indicated at the Console (Station) unit
by the ashing of the Num, Caps and Scroll
Lock LEDs on the keyboard.
Remote mode The Remote LED is lit, indicating that the
system is remotely controlled by the Console
(Station) unit.

Operation
Prior to initial operation, you may want to set the video compensation.
Hotkeys are used to adjust the equalization on the remote unit to achieve
optimum video signal quality for different cable
lengths. Five settings are available, and the device
generates a number of beeps to “acknowledge”
the cable length (right), so be sure you know the
length before proceeding with the compensation.
With a keyboard and mouse connected to the station unit, the system
conducts the emulation for the local computer, which can be controlled
remotely.
Hotkeys
Hotkey commands are short keyboard sequences used to select a
computer, activate a scan and so forth.
A hotkey sequence begins with two Left Ctrl (Control) keystrokes and is
completed with one or
more additional entries
immediately following.
A buzzer in the KVM
Extender USB / PS/2
generates a high-pitched
beep when acceptable hotkey commands are entered; when an incorrect
command is entered, a short beep followed by a longer beep is heard.
NOTE: To enable the Compatibility mode (so the device will work with
a KVM switch that also uses “Ctrl” hotkey sequences), press Ctrl + Ctrl
+ Alt/E (“Alt” and “E” pressed simultaneously).

In reference to the Console/Station Unit Hotkey Commands chart above,
the special hotkey command Ctrl + Ctrl + E + E allows the KVM Extender
USB / PS/2 to link with Port E (the 13th port of a cascaded KVM switch)
when the Compatibility mode is enabled.
* Add “E” to the command sequence when the conguration involves
any cascaded KVM switches.
** The Keyboard Speed Selection option does not apply to models other
than PS/2.

* Add “E” to the command sequence when the conguration involves
any cascaded KVM switch(es).
** The Keyboard Speed Selection option does not apply to models
other than PS/2.
*** With the Privacy Setting option, by repeating the hotkey commands
the KVM Extender PS/2 generates 1 to 3 beeps in conjunction with
the Computer unit LEDs, indicating the following setups:
• Computer unit in Local mode ((Remote LED off: Local LED on)
1 beep: Reset to factory defaults.
2-3 beeps: Disable the Computer Unit output video signal.
• Computer unit in Auto mode (LEDs ash alternately)
1 beep: Reset to factory defaults.
2 beeps: By triggering the keyboard or mouse, the user can
temporarily disable the Computer unit output video signal. (The
Computer unit user protects his privacy for 5, 15, 30 or 60
seconds, as noted in the Latch Time option in the above chart.)
3 beeps: By triggering the keyboard or mouse, Station unit or
Computer unit users can temporarily disable the output video
signal. (The users protect their privacy for 5, 15, 30 or 60
seconds, as well.)
NOTE: If the mouse doesn’t appear to be working normally, enter the
Mouse Resynchronization command to synchronize it with the system.
Cascade Conguration
When setting up the KVM Extender PS/2 to include a KVM switch for a
cascade conguration (see following diagrams), it may be necessary to
prevent conicts of hotkey commands between the units. Inserting the
extra “E” to hotkey commands makes direct management possible.
Additional cascade considerations:
• The included external power adapter is needed in order to provide
enough power to the Computer unit of the KVM Extender USB / PS/2
when connecting to a KVM switch.
• To preclude the entry of improper keystroke commands on the Station
unit, parameters such as cable length, keyboard speed and push-
button control should be set up before connecting to a KVM switch.
