Hot Plugging
The GCS1742/GCS1744 supports USB hot plugging – components can be removed and added back
into the installation by unplugging their cables from the USB hub ports without the need to shut the unit
down.
Powering Off and Restarting
If it becomes necessary to Power Off the KVM unit, before starting it back up you must do the following:
1. Shut down all the computers that are attached to the switch.
2. Unplug power adapter cable from the switch
3. Wait 10 seconds, then plug the switch’s power adapter cable back in.
4. After the switch is up, Power On the computers.
NOTE: If the KVM switch has become unresponsive or shows erratic behavior, it is highly suggested that you unplug all cables from the
KVM (all KVM cables and power cable) and leave the unit disconnected for 30 minutes. After this, plug all the KVM cables back and
power ON the unit.
