8 Port DVI-I Video
and Audio Switch
with Serial Control

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
1. Ensure that power is turned off or disconnected from the unit and the computers.
2. Use DVI cables to connect the DVI output ports from each computer to the corresponding
DVI-I IN ports of the unit.
3. Optionally connect a stereo audio cable (3.5mm to 3.5mm) to connect the audio output of
the computers to the AUDIO IN ports of the unit.
4. Connect monitors to the DVI-I OUT console port of the unit using a DVI cable.
5. Optionally connect stereo speakers to the AUDIO OUT port of the unit.
6. Finally, power on the KVM by connecting a 12VDC power supply to the power connector, and
then turn on all the computers.
EDID LEARN
The Switch is designed to learn a connected
monitor’s EDID upon power up. In the event
of connecting a new monitor to the Switch, a
power re-cycle is required.

RS-232 Serial Commands, and Front Panel
Buttons.
The settings for the serial connection are as

VGA SUPPORT
To use the DV-SW8-P with a
VGA device, the monitor must
also support analog signals.
Once this is affirmed, you can
connect the VGA monitor and
PC to the DV-SW8-P using
passive VGA to DVI adapters.
