Troubleshooting

 

Ensure that all cables are well seated. Label all of cables with the number for each 
respective computer to avoid confusion.   

 

IBM PC or Compatible: 

 

Keyboard or mouse dose not work or not be compatible with the PC, please make sure 
the keyboard or mouse works when directly plug into the computer. If the problem 
persists, please try another keyboard or mouse. 

 

Mouse doesn’t work in Auto Scan mode, you can press any key on the keyboard or the 
front button on the face plate for returning standard mode and then use the Keyboard 
or Mouse again. 

 

When USB KVM switch is in Auto Scan mode, there are only VGA monitor display and 
CPU alternately ( but

 

the USB Hub

 

is not switched in auto scan mode ). After you 

press any key, the PC port will be selected at the same time, as you see the current 
PC Screen. 

 

If your motherboard BIOS is unable to be upgraded to new BIOS, you may need boot 
this PC individually and the console port need be switched to this PC before you power 
on this PC.

 

 

The recommended VGA cable distance is 5 meters maximum without ghosting and 
degradation. Normally, the cable length is based on driver capacity of your VGA card. 
Ensure that all cables are well seated. Label all of cables with the number for each 
respective computer to avoid confusion.   

 

The maximum keyboard or mouse cable is 5 meters feet maximum.
