Installation and Operation
Refer to the following steps and diagram to set up your KVM switch
installation.
Note: Before making any connections, make sure power to all devices connected
to the KVM switch is turned off. Unplug the power cords of any computers that have
the Keyboard Power On function.
1. Connect computers to the USB-B input ports using USB cables. Connect
the computers’ microphone and stereo audio ports using 3.5 mm
audio cables. Connect computers to the “DisplayPort In” ports using
DisplayPort cables.
2. Connect a keyboard and mouse to the USB-A ports on the rear panel.
Connect a microphone and amplifier to the microphone and stereo audio
ports using 3.5 mm audio cables. Connect a monitor to “DisplayPort
Out” using a DisplayPort cable (maximum: 2 m) or to “HDMI Out” using
an HDMI cable.
Note: When either “DisplayPort Out” or “HDMI Out” is connected, video
is transmitted by the connected port automatically. When both ports are
connected, the DisplayPort takes precedence.

Installation and Operation
3. Connect the included DC power supply, and press the Power button. The
Power LED will illuminate. When computers are connected to the PC1,
PC2, PC3 and PC4 ports, the Online LEDs will illuminate.
4. Press the buttons on the front panel to select the desired computer.
The Select LED will illuminate to indicate which computer is currently
selected. The monitor will show the corresponding image, and the
selected computer can by controlled via keyboard and mouse.
5. The included IR Remote Control works the same as the pushbuttons:
a. For input: “1” specifies PC1, “2” specifies PC2, “3” specifies PC3
and “4” specifies PC4.
b. For loop switching: Order is PC1>PC2>PC3>PC4>PC1…
6. USB peripherals, such as printers, scanners and thumb drives, can be
connected to the front-panel USB-A ports.

Special Function Operation
1. Mouse Traversal Function – Place the mouse on the far right of the
monitor, and continue to slide it to the right for 2 seconds. The KVM
switch will automatically switch to the next port. Switching order is
PC1>PC2>PC3>PC4>PC1…
2. USB-B Detection Switching Function:
a. When the unit detects that a computer is connected to the USB-B
port, the unit immediately switches to that computer, and the
corresponding Online and Select LEDs illuminate. For instance, if PC1
is already connected, then PC2 becomes connected via USB-B, and
the KVM will automatically switch to PC2.
b. When the currently selected computer is powered off or the USB
cable is dialed out, the KVM automatically switches to the next
computer with the power on and the USB port connected.
3. Hotkey Function:

Notes:
1) Hotkeys are not case-sensitive.
2) A noise sounds when switching between PC1 and PC2.
¹ “++” means to press [Scroll Lock] twice in rapid succession. For example:
[Scroll Lock] ++ [Scroll Lock] + [1]” means to press the Scroll Lock
button twice in rapid succession and then press the number 1 button. The
detection period between each hotkey code is 5 seconds. If the Scroll Lock
button is pressed the first time and 5 seconds pass before the Scroll Lock
button is pressed again, the hotkey code will be invalid.
² “X” indicates the PC input. For example, to switch to PC2, the hotkey
combination is [Scroll Lock] ++ [Scroll Lock] + [2].
