SL-271-H
2 Port Cable KVM Switch – HDMI/USB and Audio
Quick Installation Guide
Introduction
The SL-271-H is a 2 port HDMI/USB & Audio KVM Switch with
two fixed KVM cables & a QuickSwitch button for simple
switching. It allows you to access and control your computers
using only one USB keyboard & mouse, HDMI monitor, speakers
& microphone.
Supports Full HD up to 1920 x 1200.
Active Sync Replication (ASR) technology ensures maximum
compatibility. ASR is an advanced video emulation technology
that ensures simultaneous full-time DDC emulation to all
connected ports. This ensures 100% video compatibility when
using operating systems like Windows 7 and Windows 8, which
have a more demanding requirement for full-time DDC emulation.
The USB keyboard and mouse ports are fully transparent USB
2.0 hub ports that feature full driver support for advanced
keyboard and mouse functionality.
If your connected keyboard and mouse only use one USB port,
the other USB port can be used to connect high-speed USB
devices such as USB external storage devices or webcam etc.
Installation
Step 1. Connect the shared USB keyboard, mouse, monitor,
speaker/headphone and microphone to its relevant port
on the SL-271-H. If your keyboard and mouse uses only
one USB port on the KVM, you can connect any USB
device to the other USB port on the KVM to share this
device between the connected computers.
Step 2. Connect each KVM PC port to a computer using the
HDMI/USB/Audio combo cable. After you have
connected the KVM and computers, you can operate
the KVM switch immediately.
Operation of KVM Switch
There are three methods to control your KVM Switch.
1. QuickSwitch Button
2. Keyboard Hotkey sequences
3. Optional KVM Switcher Software
QuickSwitch Button
The QuickSwitch Button is a wired control switch that allows you
direct switching control of the KVM switch. Simply press the
QuickSwitch Button to toggle between computers.
Keyboard Hotkeys

Optional Switcher Software

the CDROM and double-click it to start).
Step 2. Click the “Software Installation for Windows/Mac” to start
installation. (If the Mac version software does not start,
you should copy it to your local hard disk on Mac).
Follow the instructions to complete.
