OPERATION
Port Selection
The 8/ 16port of KVM provide four switching methods: manual key, hot key, mouse clicking
and OSD.
Manual Key
It is the simplest switching method. You just need to press the Port Selection Switch on the front
panel of the KVM. The Selection LED (Red) is on, indicating that you have selected to the
corresponding port.
Note：
1. The Port Selection Switch function only when connected to a PC.
2 If the Offline Skip of the OSD System Setting is Auto, then you cannot make any switch when
pressing an offline Port Selection Switch.
3. For Auto Scan Mode, none of the Port Selection Switch functions.
Hot Key and Mouse Clicking
Hot key and mouse clicking are applicable for switching a small section. You can select the SVS
(Smart View Setting) from the OSD of the PC first (for a quick switch of PC) and use the
keyboard (press the Ctrl key twice) or the mouse (press and hold the middle button while
pressing the left or right button) to switch to the previous or next set of PC.
Note：
The mouse must have at least 3 keys. As far as you select a PC with the SVS, you can use this
method for the switch.
OSD (On Screen Display)
Press the Num Lock on the keyboard twice or simultaneously press the Push Button 1 and 2 of
the Port Selection Switch on the KVM panel to start the OSD. Use the Up, Down and Enter
keys on the keyboard to switch or directly move the mouse to the target PC, and then double
click the left button.
Additionally, you also can use the numeric keys to enter the direct switch. For example, if you
want to switch a PC to the Slave KVM port 04 under the Master KVM port 03, then you can
start the OSD and then directly enter 0304. If you are using a standalone machine, then just
enter the first two digits.
