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 “HDMI In” ports using HDMI 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 “HDMI Out” using a HDMI cable.

3. Connect the included DC power supply, and press the Power button. The Power LED will illuminate. When computers are connected to the PC1 and PC2 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:
   

6. For input: “1” specifies PC1 and “2” specifies PC2.

7. For loop switching: Order is PC1>PC2>PC1>…

8. 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>PC1>…
2. USB-B Detection Switching Function:
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Hotkey Function:
