Introduction
Overview
The CS1912 / CS1914 2/4-Port USB 3.0 DisplayPort KVMP™ Switch takes a
giant leap forward in KVM switch functionality by combining a KVM switch
with a DisplayPort video interface, 2-port USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub and 2.1 channel
audio support for rich bass in surround sound. DisplayPort technology provides
a 3840 x 2160 @ 30 Hz resolution that displays high-definition images while
pumping out premium sound for music, movies and games.
As a KVM switch, the CS1912 / CS1914 allows users to access two or four
DisplayPort computers from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse and monitor
console. In addition to the front panel pushbuttons and hotkeys, the CS1912 /
CS1914 offers the latest mouse port-switching functionality which allows a
double-click of the mouse’s scroll-wheel to change ports. A Power On
Detection feature also ensures that if one computer is powered off, the CS1912
/ CS1914’s will automatically switch ports to the next powered-on computer.
With a built-in USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub, the CS1912 / CS1914 SuperSpeed 5 Gbps
transfer rates to all connected peripherals. The unit’s independent
(asynchronous) switching feature, allows the KVM focus to be on one
computer while the USB peripheral focus is on another computer. This
eliminates the need to purchase a separate USB hub or stand-alone peripheral
sharer – such as a print server, modem splitter, etc.
Featuring an unbeatable combination of high video resolutions, a next
generation USB 3.1 Gen 1 hub and enhanced, user-friendly operations, the
CS1912 / CS1914 provides the latest innovations in desktop KVM switching
technology.

located on the unit’s rear panel.
2. Plug the console monitor into the DisplayPort console port located on the
unit’s rear panel and power on the monitor.
3. Plug the main speakers into the console speaker jack located on the unit’s
front panel. The speakers plugged into this port have priority over those in
the rear panel.
4. (Optional) Plug your secondary speakers into the console audio port
located on the unit’s rear panel.
5. Using the cables provided with this package, plug the DisplayPort, USB
3.0, and speaker connectors into their corresponding sockets in the KVM
Port section of the switch.
Note: Verify that all the plugs are in the same KVM Port sockets (all in
Port 1, all in Port 2, etc.), and that each socket is marked with an
appropriate icon to indicate itself.

clicking the scroll wheel of the mouse, and Hotkey – by entering combinations
on the keyboard.
Manual Switching
For manual port selection:
Press and release a port selection pushbutton to bring the KVM focus, plus
the USB and Audio focus, to the computer attached to its corresponding
port.
Press a port selection pushbutton twice to bring the audio focus to the
computer attached to its corresponding port.
Press and hold a port selection pushbutton for more than 2 seconds to
bring the KVM focus to the computer attached to its corresponding port.
The USB and Audio focus does not change – they stay with the port that
they are already on.
Press and hold port selection pushbutton 1 and 2 for more than 2 seconds
to start Auto Scan Mode (see page 19 for details).
Press and release either port selection pushbutton to stop Auto Scan Mode.

Hotkey Switching
For Hotkey port selection: All port switches from the keyboard begin by
pressing the Scroll Lock key twice. Regarding details of the hotkey parameters,
see Cycling Through the Ports, page 17.
Hot Plugging
The CS1912 / CS1914 supports USB hot plugging – components can be
removed and added back into the installation by unplugging their cables from
the USB hub ports without the need to shut the unit down.
Powering Off and Restarting
If it becomes necessary to Power Off the CS1912 / CS1914 unit, before starting
it back up, you must do the following:
1. Shut down all the computers that are attached to the switch.
2. Unplug the switch’s power adapter cable.
3. Wait 10 seconds, then plug the switch’s power adapter cable back in.
4. Once the switch is powered up, power on the computers.
Port ID Numbering
Each KVM port section on the CS1912 / CS1914 switch is assigned a port
number. (1 or 2 for the CS1912; 1 to 4 for the CS1914). The port numbers are
marked on the rear panel of the switch (see page 8 for details).
The Port ID of a computer is derived from the KVM port number it is
connected to. For example, a computer connected to KVM port 2 has a Port ID
of 2.
The Port ID is used to specify which computer gets the KVM, USB peri pheral,
and audio focus with the Hotkey port selection method (see page 18 for
details).

Chapter 4
Hotkey Operation
The CS1912 / CS1914 provides an extensive, easy-to-use, hotkey function that
makes it convenient to control and configure your KVM installation from the
keyboard. Hotkeys provide asynchronous (independent) switching of the
KVM, USB hub, and audio focus. Therefore, you can give one computer the
KVM focus, another the USB hub focus, while a third has the audio focus.
Hotkey Port Switching
All port switches begin with tapping the [Scroll Lock] key twice. The tables
below describe the actions that each key combination performs.
Note: If using the Scroll Lock key conflicts with other programs running on
the computer, the [Ctrl] key can be used, instead. See Alternate Port
Switching Keys, page 21, for details.

Auto Scanning
The CS1912 / CS1914’s Auto Scan feature automatically cycles the KVM
focus through the computer ports at regular intervals. This allows you to
monitor the computer activity without having to take the trouble of switching
from port to port manually. See the table below for details.

The KVM focus cycles from port to port at n second intervals.
Note: The n stands for the number of seconds that the
CS1912 / CS1914 should dwell on a port before moving on
to the next. Replace the n with a number between 1 and 99
when entering this hotkey combination.
Note: 1. While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse
functions are suspended – only Auto Scan Mode compliant
keystrokes and mouse clicks can be input. You must exit Auto Scan
Mode in order to regain normal control of the console.

The Firmware Upgrade Utility
The Windows-based Firmware Upgrade Utility (FWUpgrade.exe) provides a
smooth, automated process for upgrading the KVM switch’s firmware. The
Utility comes as part of a Firmware Upgrade Package that is specific for each
device. Check the web site regularly to find the latest packages and information
relating to them:
Before you Begin
1. From a computer that is not part of your KVM installation, go to our
Support & Download
device (CS1912 / CS1914) to get a list of available Firmware Upgrade
Packages.
2. Choose the Firmware Upgrade Package you want to install (usually the
most recent), and download it to your computer.
3. Disconnect the CS1912 / CS1914 from your KVM installation and power
it off. Connect the USB cable's Type-A USB connector to a USB port on
your computer.

Troubleshooting
Operation problems can be due to a variety of causes. The first step in solving
them is to make sure that all cables are securely attached and seated completely
in their sockets. In addition, updating the product’s firmware may solve
problems that have been discovered and resolved since the prior version was
released. If your product is not running the latest firmware version, we strongly
recommend that you upgrade. See The Firmware Upgrade Utility, Chapter 6,
for upgrade details.
