1
Ground the KVM by connecting one end of a grounding wire to the KVM’s grounding terminal and the other end
to a suitable grounded object.
Note:
Do not omit this step. Proper grounding helps to prevent damage to the unit from power surges and static electricity.
2
Plug your USB keyboard and USB mouse into the unit’s USB console ports.
3
Plug your HDMI monitor(s) into the HDMI console port, then power on the monitor(s).
4
Plug your speakers into the audio jacks located on the unit’s front and rear panel.
Note:
The speakers plugged into the front panel have priority over those plugged into the rear panel.
5
Use the provided cable sets (HDMI cable, USB 3.0 cable and audio cable) with this package.
Plug the HDMI connector into any available HDMI port in the KVM Ports Section of the switch
(CPU 1, CPU 2, etc.), then plug the USB 3.0 cable and audio cable into their corresponding ports.
Notes:
• Verify that all the connectors are in the same KVM Ports Section (all in CPU 1, all in CPU 2.).
• The KVMs only support audio speakers. Do not connect a KVM cable’s microphone connector to the speaker ports.
