OPERATION
1. Power Up Sequence:
There is no power supply supplied with the switch. The switch derives its power when either one of the two PC’s that are
connected to the switch are powered up. A Power Jack marked “+5VDC IN” on the back panel of the Switch is provided in
case an external power supply is needed. A separate power source may be required if the keyboard and PS/2 mouse
being used draws more current than be provided from a single PC source. If a separate power source is required we
recommend the VIP-210 (+5Vdc 2A reg. 110 – 240 Vac 50 – 60 Hz) an external wall plug-in supply which maybe
purchased from Vetra separately.
Note: Some of the multi-media keyboards on the market can draw as much as 500 ma. Also some Optical PS/2
mice draw as much as 100 ma.
2. PC Selection:

then pressing and releasing the top row keyboard keys 1 or 2. The number keys must be released before the Scroll Lock
key. Switching takes place on the release of the Scroll Lock Key, which also rearms the keyboard selection mechanism.
When selection of PC#1 or PC#2 is completed, observe on the front panel of the switch that the appropriate green "SEL"
indicator is on.
