Problems with the Power Supply
Q: The power switch is off or the power adapter is unplugged, but the switch still
works.
A:
The
DKVM-16
draws power from the power adapter and the PC’s PS/2
port. Some PC’s PS/2 port can support enough power for the switch, but
some PS/2 ports (such as those on laptops) are unable to supply enough
power for the switch. In order to make sure the system works properly,
please do not turn the power switch off or remove the power adapter from
the switch.
Although the PCs connected to the
DKVM-16
are able to support enough
power to the switch, the
DKVM-16
requires a power adapter to daisy-chain
more banks.
