------------------------ Introduction Automatic Mouse Conversion
Overview The KVM Switches enable you to connect computers with PS/2 or
The SH-6580 is only 1U Four in one control center (KVM switch, KEYBOARD, LCD and MOUSE). It can control up to 8 PCs or 64 PCs by cascade. There is no interface card or software to configure. Installation is as easy as connecting cables between SH-6580 and your computers. Operation is as simple as pressing push button, entering hot-key command and navigating through the user-friendly on-screen menu. Depending on the model yo u have, it switches up to 4 (KVM104D), 8 (KVM108D) IBM-compatible computers. The KVM Switches is independent of the computer operating system.
High Video Quality
KVM Switches supports VGA resolution up to 1600x1200 @85Hz without any degradation (But it is limited by Monitor, so only up to Monitor resolution). Advanced VGA circuit design guarantees smooth and flicker-free switching from one computer to the other with distance up to 100ft (30M)* at both Console and PC sides.
Two-Console KVM Switches (Optional)
The advanced multi-access KVM Switches enable you to control multiple computers from two different locations: one is contained in SH-6580; the other one you can connect from outside, the distance is up to 30M. KVM208D controls 8 computers.
NOTE: The following is the optional KVM Switch and Display models.

Features Configurations
Supports both PS/2 and serial mouse SH-6580 has several models each supporting a different number of
computers. For applications with a large number of computers, KVM Switches can be cascaded in a master/slave configuration to support even more computers.
Cascade configuration expands system capability up to 64 PCs Auto-scan automatically selects computers sequentially Supports Microsoft IntelliMouse (Pro) Hot-key functions allow easy computer access Keyboard states automatically saved and restored when switching
computers
Single Configuration
Operating system independent, transparent to all applications Plug and play system configuration
First let one side of adapter Plug-in power insert and connect the other side of the adapter to the port of KVM switches. Then, connect multiple sets of keyboard, mouse and monitor cables to the “PC x” ports of the KVM Switches, as shown in figure 1.
Keyboard and mouse can be hot plugged at any time High VGA resolution 1600x1200 for KVM switch, but limited by
LCD.
DDC2B compatible Standard 1U 19 inch rack mounting Supports optional multimedia module for microphones and stereo
speakers (MAV108).
Extra features for On-Screen Display model
Assign computers with unique and meaningful names Identify and select computers by the names Programmable scan filters unused computers Store system settings and name entries to non-volatile memory Password security locks computer from unauthorized access Gain complete control with easy-to-use OSD interface

Cascade (Master/Slave) Configuration
You can connect a second level of one or more KVM Switches to “PC 1”~”PC 4” (KVM104) or "PC 1"~”PC 8” ports (KVM108) of a Master unit. Cascade configuration expands system ability allowing you to select computers connected to the Master or Slaves (There is only one Master, which has a mouse, a keyboard and a monitor connected to its CONSOLE port directly operated by a user). Once connected, KVM Switches automatically configure themselves to either Master or Slave. Slaves of different KVM Switches models can be mixed in cascade configuration. [NOT E: Master must have
equal or more PC ports than that of Slaves, i.e., if KVM104 is a master, KVM104 can be Slaves, but KVM108 can not.]
Figure 2: A cascade KVM Switches configuration
Throughout this manual, Master is the SH-6580. Slave is a KVM Switches that has its CONSOLE port connected to a Master's “PC x” port. Slave only exists in cascade configuration.

------------------------ Installation
Device Connection
Determine the channel address of each computer. For computers using PS/2 mouse, connect the computer's mouse and keyboard cables to the KVM Switches’s connectors marked with a mouse and keyboard respectively, as shown in figure 4.
Figure 4: Master computer connection
For computers using serial mouse, connect the DB-9 to mini-DIN-6 adapter (supplied with the KVM Switches) to the computer mouse port, then use PS/2 cables to connect the mouse to KVM Switches, see figure 5. Connect the computer's monitor cable to the HD-DB-15 VGA connector. Repeat above steps for all remaining computers to be connected to the KVM Switches.

Initial Power-Up Rack Mount Accessories
Figure 6 shows how to attach optional mounting brackets to the SH-6580 unit for standard 19-inch rack cabinet.
Make sure all computers and KVM Switches are powered down during installation. You must power up the Master KVM Switches before turning on any other devices.
For single KVM Switches: 1) Apply a power adapter to the
Master. 2) Turn on computers.
For cascade: 1) Apply a power adapter to the Master.
2) Apply power adapters to all Slaves. 3) Turn on computers.
Note: You may hot plug additional powered-down computer and Slave without turning any existing KVM Switches or computer off after initial power up.
Replace Master Console Devices
You can replace a faulty keyboard or mouse of the Master
CONSOLE port at any time without powering down the Master, as long as your computers are booted with proper device driver for the new device. Should you encounter any difficulty, just activate K/M RESET by holding both front-panel ‘1’ and ‘2’ push buttons down for 2 seconds.

Figure 7 shows how to assemble rack cable support then screw it to the back and inside the rack cabinet vertical post.
Figure 7: Assembling rack cable support Then, keyboard/mouse/monitor cables can be routed over the cable support. You can use plastic cable ties to bundle and label the cables through the rack cable support holes for easy identification.
