Thank you for purchasing a MiniView
TM
: USB KVM
switch, a revolutionary new KVM design from IOGEAR.
Recognizing the importance of USB for small office &
home office users, we’ve combined four downstream
USB ports and a standard HDB-15 video port into a sin-
gle KVM switch that fits right on your desktop. Now you
can use the MiniView
TM
: USB to share a monitor and four
USB devices between two (G-CS102U) and four (G-
CS104U) computers. Connect a USB keyboard, USB
mouse and two other USB devices – any USB devices.
Scanners, Zip Drives, Printers and all other USB compli-
ant devices will work with the MiniView
TM
: USB. If four
USB devices aren’t enough, connect a USB hub to one of
the shared ports and expand your USB capacity. Be-
cause the MiniView
TM
: USB is platform-independent, you
can use it with Macs and PCs. Your only limitation is the
software support for your USB peripherals. Rest as-
sured, though, that if your peripherals will work with a
Mac and a PC, they’ll work with the MiniView
TM
: USB as
well. We sincerely hope you enjoy using your new Mi-
niView
TM
: USB. If you have any questions or comments
regarding this product, or any other IOGEAR products,
