The KVM Switcher Software supports only the Windows
operating system on PC platforms. For other OS platforms such as
Linux , you can still use the keyboard hotkey - ScrLk + ScrLK - to
switch PC. However, this switching hotkey is not available on non-
PC platform such as MacOS. When connected to a Mac machine,
use the face-panel button to switch port.
Step 2. Connect the shared USB keyboard, mouse,
monitor, speaker/headphone and microphone each to its
port on your KVM Switch.
Step 3. Connect each KVM PC port to a computer, using
the slim 3-in-1 KVM combo cable and the audio/mic cable.
After you have connected the KVM and computers properly,
Now you can operate the KVM Switch immediately.
Some older computers with USB interface might need to
manually enable the USB option in the BIOS settings before
you can use any USB devices. If your USB interface does not
work, please check the USB option status in the BIOS.
If you use Windows 95/98/SE and has not yet installed a USB
mouse on your computer, there might be an error message
telling you that mouse is not detected and prompting you to
decide whether to ignore the same message in the future,
and yet you found there is no mouse movement to disable
this message….So it is suggested that you should installed
your USB mouse on your computer first, before connecting it
to this KVM Switch.
