INSTALLATION

USING YOUR KVM SWITCH

9. Using the OmniView KVM Cable for SOHO Series with Audio (the KVM

Cable), connect one end of the lime male 3.5mm plug to the speaker jack

of your sound card or computer and connect the other end to the lime

audio jack of the KVM Switch. See Fig. 14.

10. Using the KVM Cable, connect one end of the pink male 3.5mm plug to

the mic jack of your sound card or computer and connect the other end

to the pink mic jack of the KVM Switch. See Fig. 14.

Powering Up the Systems

Once all cables have been connected, power up the CPUs that are

attached to the KVM Switch. All computers can be powered on

simultaneously. The KVM Switch emulates a mouse and keyboard on each

port and allows your computer to boot normally.

Your KVM Switch should now be ready for use.

You can select which computer to operate by either the direct-access port

selectors located on the front panel of the KVM Switch or through

keyboard hot key commands. Note that it will take 1–2 seconds for the

video to display after switching. This is due to the refresh of the video

signal. There is also re-synchronization of the mouse and keyboard signal

that takes place. This is normal operation and ensures that proper

synchronization is established.

Selecting a Computer Using Direct-Access Port Selectors

You can directly select which computer you wish to control by pressing

the corresponding direct-access port selector next to the appropriate

port. The LED will be lit to indicate that the port is currently selected.

Selecting a Computer Using Keyboard Hot Key Commands

You can command the KVM Switch to switch ports with a simple keyboard

command sequence by using the “SCROLL LOCK” key and up/down arrow

keys. To send commands to the KVM Switch, the “SCROLL LOCK” key must

be pressed twice within two seconds. You will hear a beep for

confirmation. Then you can press the up/down arrow keys to switch

between ports.
