To perform switching operations between CON and CPU Devices proceed as follows:
1. Select
View > Matrix
in the task area or select
View > Port
when using a Matrix Grid.
2. Move the mouse cursor to the port that has to be switched.
3. Hold down the left mouse button and move the cursor to the port that has to be connected to the initial
port. The current cursor movement will be displayed by a black auxiliary line.
4. Release the left mouse button.
A selection menu to select the available switching type (
Full Access
,
Video Access
or
Private Mode
)
will be opened.
5. Select the desired switching type.
The switching operation will be immediately executed. At the same time all EXT Units that are assigned
to the involved devices will be switched.
If a port is shown with a red cross on
Matrix View
, the CON Device does not have access rights to the
CPU Device connected to that port.
To disconnect existing connection between CON Device and CPU Device, proceed as follows:
1. Click with the right mouse button on the port that is to be disconnected.
2. Select the
Disconnect
function in the popup that appears.
The connected ports will be immediately disconnected. At the same time all further connections of the
extenders assigned to the involved devices will be disconnected.

USB 2.0 Switching
Switching of USB 2.0 extender modules basically works like switching of KVM extender modules. The
following scenarios to switch USB 2.0 extender modules are possible.
1. An EXT Unit with USB 2.0 will be created and assigned to an already existing device with existing KVM
EXT Units (see chapter 8.8.2, page 193 or chapter 8.9.3, page 210).
2. A separate device for the EXT Unit with USB 2.0 will be created without assigning a KVM EXT Unit to
that device. This possibility offers a separate switching of the USB 2.0 signal (see chapter 8.8.2,
page 193 or chapter 8.9.3, page 210).
Switching of USB 2.0 signals uses Extended Switching functionality (see chapter 9.3.1, page 270).
When using parallel operation within the matrix, set the
Release Time
in the
System Settings > Switch
menu to 10 s or more (see chapter 8.4.5, page 146). Otherwise, the connection of the USB 2.0 extender
will not be established due to security and stability reasons.
