USB Mode Select the type of USB device you will connect to the USB ports:
Virtual Media: Select this option only if you are plugging a USB
disk drive (including USB HDD/optical disk) into the USB ports.
This will give you the highest data transfer speeds but will not allow
other USB devices to work when plugged into the USB ports. When
Receivers connected to the same transmitter mount or unmount
USB disk drives, the keyboard and mouse operations will
experience a brief delay. Transmitters can support up to 12 virtual
media connections at the same time (keyboard/mouse included).
vUSB (Generic USB device) : Use this option to plug USB
peripherals* into the USB ports. This option also allows a keyboard
and mouse with special functions to plug into the USB ports for
console use. Use this only if the special functions of the keyboard
or mouse are required but do not work when plugged into the
console ports. When the keyboard and mouse are plugged into the
USB ports, they will not work within the OSD menus. To work within
the OSD menus, the keyboard and mouse must be plugged into
the console ports. KE6900ST/KE8900ST/KE9900ST transmitters
do not support the Generic USB Device mode. In this mode,
KE6900/KE6940 transmitters supports up to 2 USB connections;
and KE8950/KE8952 transmitters support up to 5 USB connections
(keyboard/mouse excluded).
Encryption : Check this box to encrypt USB disk drives plugged
into the USB ports.
Note: This USB port does not support isochronous endpoints,
therefore USB peripherals that stream audio or video data, such as
speakers or webcams, will not work.
