Installation Notes
1. Connections are provided for either a 6-pin PS/2-style or a 5-pin Extended AT-style
keyboard. Do not connect both keyboards simultaneously. Because the Hot Key
Mode operation (page 9) requires full PS/2 keyboard functions, a PS/2-style or an
Extended AT-style keyboard, which supports these functions, is recommended.
2. You may simultaneously connect PS/2 and AT computers to CompuSwitch with the
appropriate cables. However, only a PS/2 mouse can be used with CompuSwitch
to operate the computers.
