[. . . ] . 22 1 OVERVIEW The Belkin 2-Port KVM Switch allows you to control multiple computers with one keyboard, monitor, and mouse. The Switch supports PS/2 input devices (keyboard and mouse), VGA, SVGA, XGA, and PS/2 computers. OVERVIEW Equipment Requirements Cables For each PS/2 computer you plan to connect to the Switch, you will need one VGA cable, one PS/2 keyboard cable, and one PS/2 mouse cable. Keyboard and mouse cables must have PS/2 male-to-PS/2 male connectors. To support resolutions of up to 1920x1440@65Hz and to preserve signal integrity, use of a 75-Ohm coaxial VGA cable is required. [. . . ] Connect one end of the PS/2 mouse KVM cable to the mouse port on your computer and the other end to the MOUSE 1 port on the side of the Switch. Repeat Steps 3 through 5 for each additional computer to be connected to the Switch, connecting them to the corresponding CPU ports on the side. 12 13 USING YOUR SWITCH Powering Up the Systems Once all cables have been connected, power up your CPUs that are attached to the Switch. The Switch emulates a mouse and keyboard on each port and will allow your computer to boot normally. You can select which computer to operate by either the front-panel push button located on the top of the Switch or through hot key commands. Note that it will take 1-2 seconds for the video to display after switching. A re-synchronization of the mouse and keyboard signal also takes place. This is normal operation and ensures that proper synchronization is established. You can conveniently change ports on the Switch through a keyboard command sequence using the "SCROLL LOCK" key and up and down arrow keys. To send commands to the Switch, press the "SCROLL LOCK" key twice within two seconds. Then you can press the up or down arrow keys to switch between ports. USING YOUR SWITCH You can switch directly to any port by entering the Switch port number you wish to use. For example, if you press "SCROLL LOCK", "SCROLL LOCK", "2", the computer on port 2 will be selected. + AutoScan Mode + Switch to Port 2--(02) In AutoScan mode, the Switch remains on one port for eight seconds before switching to the next. To enable AutoScan mode, press "SCROLL LOCK", "SCROLL LOCK", "S". Note: There is no mouse or keyboard control in this mode by design, in order to prevent errors. If it were enabled, the user could move the mouse or use the keyboard while the KVM Switch is switching to the next port. This could interrupt communication between the computer and Switch that might cause erratic mouse movement, or result in errant display of characters when using the keyboard. To disable AutoScan mode, press the space bar.
