Where is the power supply? I did not find one in the box.
The TK-208K does not require a power supply. It draws power from
your computer's PS/2 connections.As long as your KVM switch is connected to
the PS/2 port, it will receive the necessary power to function.
I have the KVM switch connected properly, but my keyboard and mouse don't
work. Please make sure your PS/2 port is working properly by testing it with your
other PS/2 devices. Once you confirm that the PS/2 port is functional, please
reboot your computers, and try to use the KVM switch again.
Can I connect and disconnect the PS/2 cables while the computers are turned
on? Yes, you can connect or disconnect the PS/2 cables while the computers are
turned on because the PS/2 interface is Plug-and-Play and Hot-Pluggable.
Will the KVM switch remember the keyboard settings between computers?
Yes, the KVM switch will remember the keyboard settings when switching
between your computers. (i.e.: Cap lock, Num key, etc.)
How do I switch from one computer to another with the KVM switch?
You may switch between PCs by pressing the Push button on the KVM switch
or by using the Hot-Key commands.
If you have further questions, please contact TRENDnet’s Technical Support
Department.
