  1. Connect Console Devices: Plug your USB keyboard and mouse into the USB console ports on the rear panel.
  2. Connect Monitors: Plug your monitors into the DisplayPort console ports on the rear panel and power them on.
  3. Connect Audio (Front): Plug your primary microphone and speakers into the front panel audio jacks.
  4. Connect Audio (Rear): Plug secondary microphone and speakers into the rear panel audio ports if needed. Note that front panel audio has priority.
  5. Connect Computers: Using user-supplied DisplayPort cables, connect the DisplayPort, USB 3.0, microphone, and speaker cables to the corresponding KVM port section (e.g., CPU1) for each computer. Ensure all cables for a single computer are in the same KVM port section.
  6. Connect Peripherals: Optionally, plug USB peripherals into the front or rear USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports.
  7. Power On: Connect the included power adapter to the switch and an AC power source, then power on the computers.

Important: To prevent damage from power surges or static electricity, ensure all connected devices are properly grounded.

Operation

You can switch between computers using several methods:

  • Manual Switching: Press the Port Selection pushbutton for the desired computer, or press the Mode Selection button once followed by the Port Selection button.
  • Mouse Switching: Double-click the scroll wheel of your USB mouse to cycle through ports. This requires a 3-key scroll wheel mouse and must be enabled.
  • Hotkey Switching: Tap the [Scroll Lock] key twice, then press [Enter] to cycle to the next port, or [n] [Enter] to select a specific port (where n is the port number). If [Scroll Lock] conflicts with other programs, [Ctrl] can be used instead.

Hotkey Setting Mode (HSM)

To configure advanced settings, invoke HSM:

  1. Press and hold [Num Lock].
  2. Press and release [-].
  3. Release [Num Lock].
  4. Press the desired function key:
    • [H]: Toggle HSM invocation keys.
    • [R] [Enter]: Reset hotkey settings.
    • [T]: Toggle port switching keys.
    • [U][P][G][R][A][D][E][Enter]: Invoke Firmware Upgrade Mode.
    • [F1]: Set SPC mode for special operating systems.
    • [F2]: Enable Mac keyboard emulation.
    • [F4]: Print current settings.
    • [F10]: Enable Windows keyboard emulation.

Practical help

Common problems

Mouse switching is not working.

Ensure you are using a USB 3-key scroll wheel mouse, mouse emulation is enabled, and the feature is not disabled by default.

Hotkey [Scroll Lock] conflicts with other software.

Use the [Ctrl] key instead of [Scroll Lock] for hotkey commands.

Before use

  • Verify all connected devices are properly grounded.
  • Ensure you have user-supplied DisplayPort cables available.
  • Check that all connectors for a single PC are in the same KVM port section (e.g., all in CPU1).
