Hardware Installation

NOTE: Prior to the installation, please power o all devices that will be connected to this system.

1. Place the KVM switch in close proximity to the keyboard, mouse, and

monitor(s) you wish to use as the console controls.

2. Connect the USB keyboard, mouse, speakers and microphone (if

applicable) to the KVM switch.

3. Connect the DVI monitor into the Console’s DVI connector.

4. Connect the VGA monitor into the Console’s VGA connector.

OPTIONAL: Connect any other USB peripheral you wish to share between the connected computers/devices to the extra USB Hub port on the Console side.

5. Use male-to-male video cables to connect the DVI and VGA connectors on

the computer’s video card, to the DVI and VGA ports for one of the KVM’s PC

ports (i.e. PC1). NOTE: Do not mix dierent types of DVI cables (DVI-I, DVI-D) on the same KVM switch.

6. Use a USB type A-B Cable to connect the KVM’s USB port (type B, square

connector) for the PC port used in the previous step, and the USB port

on the computer (type A, at connector). If using audio, connect 3.5mm

mini-jack cables from the PC port to the sound card. NOTE: DVI + USB + Audio KVM combo cables are also available which can be used in place of separate individual cables (e.g. StarTech.com ID: DVI4N1USB6).

7. Repeat the previous two steps for each PC port on the KVM switch, or

each computer you wish to use on the KVM switch.

8. Connect the external power adapter from a wall outlet to the power

connector on the rear panel of the KVM switch.

9. Power up the rst computer/device and wait for it to fully boot and test

keyboard/mouse functionality.
