Note
Regardless of any of the 8/16 port models, the KVM can used as master or slave mode, and
you can connect different number of ports in series to the KVM. However, it is noteworthy
that there are two levels available. Only the master having a monitor, a mouse and a keyboard
installed to the console port can connect to the slave KVM for the expansion. The slave KVM
cannot connect in series to the KVM.
Expansion
1. PC
It is not necessary to power off the KVM or other computer connected to the KVM system.
You only need to power off the selected PC and connect the PC to the CPU port of the KVM
in parallel by the 3-in-1 cable (or with PS2 to USB Adaptor), and then power on the PC.
2. Slave KVM
Make sure the power switch at the rear panel of the KVM is OFF. Use the 3-in-1 cable (or
with PS2 to USB Adaptor) to connect the console port of the slave KVM to the CPU port of
the master KVM .Power on the slave KVM.
3. Master KVM
If you add a set of KVM, you must set such KVM to be master. Unplug the monitor, mouse
and keyboard on the console port of the original KVM, and plug them into the console port of
the new master KVM. Use the 3-in-1 cable (or with PS2 to USB Adaptor) to connect the CPU
port of the master KVM in parallel to the console port of the slave KVM. Please link adaptor
to DC jack.
For example
If you want to install one Slave KVM and three PCs, then just follow Step 2 of the above to add
the slave KVM and install the PCs one by one according to Step 1.
