Overview

The CS-74A KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse), Switch is a

control unit that allows the control of up to four computers from

a single console (keyboard, monitor, and mouse). With its

custom designed connectors, the CS-74A reduces the number

of ports required for a 4 Port KVM switch from 15 (10 PS/2 and

5 HDB-15) to only 5 (4 custom designed SPDB-15 connectors

for the computer attachments, and a single, custom designed,

integrated, SPDB-15 connector for the keyboard, video, and

mouse).

The special connector design provides several advantages

over standard KVM switch implementations: 1) increased

reliability; 2) a handsome, space-saving, vertical-standing,

modern appearance; 3) neater, more efficient, cabling -

eliminating the usual tangled mess.

Setup is fast and easy; plugging cables into their appropriate

ports is all that is entailed. There is no software to configure, so

there is no need to get involved in complex installation routines

or be concerned with incompatibility problems. Since the

CS-74A intercepts keyboard and mouse input directly, it works

on any hardware platform and with all operating systems.

The CS-74A provides two convenient methods to switch the

KVM focus among the computers: 1) by pressing push button

port selection switches located on the unit’s front panel; and 2)

by entering Hotkey combinations from the keyboard.

There is no better way to save time and money than with an

CS-74A installation. By allowing a single console to manage all

of the attached computers, the CS-74A eliminates the expense

of purchasing a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse for

each one. Additionally, it saves the extra space and energy

costs that they would require, and eliminates the inconvenience

and wasted effort involved in constantly having to move from

one computer to the other.

Cables

Only CS Custom cable sets specifically designed to work with

this switch may be used. One Console Connector Cable and

four KVM cable sets (2 x 1.2 m; 2 x 1.8 m) are provided with

this package.

Note: 1. Cable sets are also available in 3 m lengths. If you need

additional cables, or 3 m cables, contact your dealer.

2. If your computer uses a standard AT style keyboard

socket, you will need a PS/2-to-AT keyboard adapter

(Part No. 2A-106 or any standard keyboard adapter),

in order to plug the cable into the Computer’s

keyboard port.

3. The CS-74A only supports PS/2 style mice - it does

not support serial mice.

Components

Front View:

1. Port Selection Switches

Press a switch to give the KVM focus to the system attached

to its corresponding port.

MPressing Buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously for 3 seconds

performs a Keyboard and Mouse Reset.

MPressing Buttons 3 and 4 simultaneously for 3 seconds

2. Port LEDs

The Port LEDs are built into the Port Selection Switches. A lit

LED indicates that its corresponding Port is the one that has

the KVM focus.

Depending on the Port’s status, the LED may flash

according to a specific pattern (see the table on p. 12 for

details).

1. CPU Port Connectors*

The KVM cables that connect the unit to the mouse,

keyboard, and video ports on the computers you are

connecting up can plug into any available port.

2. Console Port Connector*

The Console Connector Cable plugs in here.

*The shape of these 15-pin CPU and Console port connectors

has been specifically modified so that only KVM cables

designed to work with this switch can plug in (see the Cables

section on p. 3 for details).

3. Power Jack

The power adapter plugs into this jack located on the

CS-74A’s bottom panel.

Note: The CS-74A does not require external power. Use of

a power adapter is optional, and requires a separate

Installation

The CS-74A can either lay flat on the desktop or stand upright.

To have it stand upright, unsnap its mounting stand from the

bottom of the unit; turn it 90o; and snap it back into place. See

the photo on the front page for an example.

Refer to the diagram on p. 7 as you do the following:

1. Plug the Console Connector Cable into the Console Port

Connector on the rear panel of the CS-74A.

2. Plug your keyboard, monitor and mouse into the Console

Keyboard, Monitor and Mouse connectors of the Console

Adapter Cable.

3. Use the CS Custom KVM cables to connect the CS-74A

CPU Ports to the monitor, keyboard and mouse ports of the

computers you are installing.

Note: If your computers use AT style connectors for the

keyboard, refer back to the note in the Cables section

on p. 3.

4. If you choose to use external power, plug the power adapter

into an AC power source, then plug the power adapter cable

into the unit’s Power Jack. See the note on the next page for

information about the adapter.

5. Turn on the power to the computers.

Note: The CS-74A’s default is to link to the first computer

you turn on.

1. Before you begin, make sure that power

to all the devices you will be connecting

up have been turned off. You must

unplug the power cords of any

computers that have the Keyboard

Power On function. Otherwise, the

switch will receive power from the

computer.

2. To prevent damage to your installation

2003-02-18

Note: 1. In order to fit into the jack, the power adapter cable

should have an Lshaped plug.

2. The power adapter should be DC9V with the inside

positive and the outside negative:

Operation

Controlling all the computers in your CS-74A installation from a

single console could not be easier. Two port selection methods

that provide instant access to the computers are available:

MManual Port Selection

MHotkey Port Selection

Manual Port Selection

With Manual Port Selection you simply press the appropriate

Port Selection switch on the unit’s front panel to give the KVM

focus to its corresponding port. The Port LED lights to indicate

that its port has the KVM focus.

Hotkey Port Selection

Hotkey port selection allows you to directly access a computer

from the keyboard, instead of having to manually switch to it

with the Port Selection button. The CS-74A provides three

Hotkey navigation features:

MSelecting the Active Port

MAuto Scan Mode

MSkip Mode
