Installation
This section details how to connect your computers to the KVM switch. For best results,
ensure that all the computers to be controlled are located as close as possible to the
KVM switch and console peripherals (monitor, keyboard, mouse). This will reduce the
length of cabling required and reduces the chance of interference.

wish to use as the console controls.
2. Connect the monitor to the VGA port under
CONSOLE
.
3. Connect a USB keyboard to the Type A connector under

Connecting computers to the KVM Switch
This section describes how to connect a computer you wish to control to the KVM switch.
Repeat these steps for each computer you wish to connect.

in step 1, if applicable.) Connect the opposite end to the video connector on the KVM
switch that corresponds to the computer number you wish to use for that system
