- 16/32 Port Modular MatrixTM KVM Switch User Manual

Powering Off and Restarting

Powering off the KM0216 / KM0432 does not affect the computers attached to

it. When you restart the KM0216 / KM0432, you will regain control

immediately. To replace a KM0216 / KM0432, simply power it down; unplug

the cables; plug them into the new unit; and power the new unit on.

Note: If any of the computers behave strangely after powering off and

restarting, or changing a switch, simply restart the computer.

Port Selection

Port Selection is accomplished either by means of the KM0216 / KM0432’s

OSD (On Screen Display), or by entering Hotkey combinations from the

keyboard. OSD Operation is discussed in detail in the next chapter; Hotkey

Port Selection is discussed in chapter 4.

Although hotkeys are handy for a single stage installation, we strongly

recommend you use the more powerful and versatile OSD - especially for daisy

chained, cascaded, and combined installations.
