INTRODUCTION
HSL Mini-Matrix
Optimize user experience when working with multiple computers. View and control two computers at the same time whilst effortlessly sharing keyboard, video, mouse, audio and USB devices.
The Mini-Matrix KVM switch offered by HSL provides increased productivity in challenging multi-computer environments where users are required to view and interact with several computers simultaneously.
Obviate the need for purchasing and installing dedicated, per computer peripheral sets.
This guide refers to the following models:
SX22D-N – 2-Port DVI-I Video K VM Switch SX22H-N – 2-Por t HDMI Video KVM Switch SX42DU-N – 4-Port DVI-I Video K VM Switch w/sUSB SX42HU-N – 4-Port 4K HDMI Video KVM Switch w/sUSB SX82DU-N – 8-Port DVI-I Video KVM Switch w/sUSB

Installing the Mini-Matrix
Step 1 – Cable Installation
1. Connect console port peripherals:
• Connect video displays to the Mini-Matrix primary and secondary display ports.
Note: it is highly recommended to use identical primary and secondary display models. EDID information is taken from the primary console display port (#1) and sent to all connected computers. In case of using non-identical displays, connect the smaller display to the primary console display por t.
• Connect keyboard, mouse and audio peripherals to the Mini- Matrix console ports. These will be shared between all sources.
• USB peripherals: Connect USB peripherals to the Mini-Matrix console USB port.
2. Computer/Source channel ports:
• For each source, connect the video, keyboard, mouse, USB and audio cables to the Mini-Matrix source ports.
3. Dual screen support:
• Download and install HSL’s Multi Display Driver on source computers that have multiple screens (currently available only for Windows)( http://highseclabs.com/dl.php?fid=446).

Step 2 – Power ON the Mini-Matrix
• Turn ON all the PCs.
• Connect the power supply and power ON the Mini-Matrix (approximate boot time is 10 seconds).
• The Mini-Matrix boots into duplicate- mode, where source number 1 is presented on both displays.
Note: In case no pic ture is presented after powering ON, switch between the primary and secondar y displays, or, connect an alternate display, or perform a reset to factory default.

Step 3 – Reset to Factory Defaults
Reset to factory defaults clears the device settings and restores the device to its original configuration.
• System reset, clears behavioral characteristics such as mouse settings and display presets. Type { L CTRL | L CTRL | F11| r } key combination.
• Complete reset: clears all device settings and resets to factory defaults. From the Terminal menu select the “Reset to Factory Defaults” option (refer to terminal mode guide).

Important Notes:
1. Always use the left control key (CTRL) unless other wise specified.
2. Keyboard shortcut keys are to be pressed sequentially
3. Do not use the numeric keypad for toggling shortcuts unless other wise specified.
4. ALL KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS REFER TO QWER TY KEYBOARDS. In case a non­qwerty keyboard is in use, keep using the QWERTY layout.

Step 1 – Display & Control Options
Display & Control options define which source to display and control on each screen. Source selection is done through the source selection buttons on the front panel or via the DCU (dedicated control unit) port.
Selection Panel
• Use the Source Selection Panels to choose which source to display on each screen.
• The lef t panel controls which source to display on the Primary display while the right panel controls the secondary display.
• For example, as seen in the illustration, when #1 is selected on the Primary Panel and #3 is selec ted on the Secondary panel, the selected sources will be presented accordingly.
• A source can be duplicated, by selecting its number on both panels.
• By default, Mouse, Keyboard, Audio and USB peripherals follow the display association.
• Independently switch the Video / USB / Audio / Keyboard & Mouse ports between computers
• Use the front-p anel push buttons to independently swi tch the Vide o / USB / Audio / Keyboard & Mouse por ts between the primary and secondary computers.
Selection Panel
• Useful for various scenarios, for instance: – When a USB disk on key must remain mapped to a certain computer
while the keyboard, video, mouse and audio are switched to another computer.
– When a user has to listen to audio o riginating from one computer while
working on another computer.
• Additional options are described ahead under the advanced presets section.

OPERATION
Step 2 – Relative vs. Absolute Mouse
By default the Mini-Matrix is setup with relative mouse settings.
• Relative mouse (default) confines the mouse movement to the screen of each selected computer. To switch the mouse between sources, use the front panel push buttons.
• Absolute mouse (VDT) allows switching the mouse between sources by moving the mouse cursor across display boarders.
Cursor Navigation (Virtual Display Technology - VDT):
• With cursor navigation the user can move from one highly isolated computer system to another by simply moving the mouse cursor across display borders.
• Once the cursor crosses the display border, Keyboard, Mouse, Audio and USB mapping switch to the computer that is connected to that display.
• No need to push any buttons.
How to define mouse state
• Use the key combination { L CTRL | L CTRL | F11 | c } to enable absolute mouse (VDT).
• Use the key combination { L CTRL | L CTRL | F11 | b } to enable relative (this is the default mode).

Step 3 – Predefined Display Layouts (Presets)
What are presets?
• Presets reflect the layout and boarders of computer displays to the Mini-Matrix.
• The Mini-Matrix includes 6 predefined presets, described below.
What are presets for?
• Presets allow the Mini-Matrix to correctly associate the mouse with each source based on the physical display positioning and the respective number of displays which are associated with each source.
• Presets enable cursor navigation switching which allows the user to switch control between PCs by moving the mouse cursor across display boarders.
How to switch between presets
• Use the key combination { L CTRL | L CTRL | F11 | F1-to-F6 } to toggle between presets.
Enable absolute-mouse prior to working with presets, type: { L CTRL | L CTRL | F11 | c }.
