Operation
There are three methods to control your KVM Switch for PC and Audio/Mic channel
selection: front panel pushbuttons, hotkey sequences or the KVM Switcher Software.
Front Panel Pushbuttons
The front panel pushbuttons provide direct control over KVM switching operation. Simply
press the button to switch to the corresponding PC port (as well as the audio/mic
channel ports if binding is enabled). By default, PC port switching and audio/mic port
switching are bound together, unless you bind the audio to a specific port.
Please note: You can use the front panel pushbuttons to switch to an empty port (not
connected to a slave computer), but the keyboard hotkeys or KVM Switcher Software
cannot perform the same function.
Keyboard Hotkeys
Please note: Each keystroke within a hotkey sequence should be pressed within two
seconds. Otherwise, the hotkey sequence will not be validated
Please note: After switching ports, you must wait until the KVM Switcher icon updates
accurately in the taskbar, before switching again.
