IntroductionIntroduction
Thank you for purchasing one of the smallest and most
feature-rich KVM switches on the market. IOGEAR’s
KVM switches are first-rate connectivity accessories
designed to help reduce the frustration of managing
multiple computer systems. With the MiniView
TM
series by
IOGEAR, you can access multiple computers from a
single console (keyboard, mouse and monitor). The
MiniView
TM
provides two convenient methods to access
connected computers. Change ports easily via the push
button selection switch located on the unit’s side panel, or
by entering
Hot Key combinations from the keyboard.
Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their
appropriate ports is all that is entailed. There is no
software to configure, no installation routines and no
incompatibility problems. Since the MiniView
TM
intercepts
keyboard input directly, it works on any PS/2 compatible
hardware platform and with all operating systems. There
is no better way to save time and money than with a
MiniView
TM
. By allowing a single console to manage the
attached computers, the MiniView
TM
eliminates the
expense of purchasing a separate keyboard, monitor and
mouse for each PC. Additionally, these switches save all
the extra space multiple consoles would take up, and
eliminate the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in
constantly having to move from one PC to the other.
We hope you enjoy using your MiniView
TM
KVM switch,
yet another first-rate connectivity solution from IOGEAR.
