2.6 Hot Plug

The KVM Switch supports “Hot Plug“ function for easy addition
or removal of PCs. The user can arrange or maintain PCs as
follows:

a. A PC can be disconnected and reconnected to the same

or different port of the KVM unit without having to power it
off as long as it is not the Daisy-chain port or pass through
port.

b. You may unplug the mouse or the keyboard from the

console port and plug it back in at any time.
