Switching Between Computers

After you install your KVM and power-on your computers, the first computer desktop to

appear on your monitor will be your Mac mini. The number “1” on the front of KVM will be lit.

You can now use your Mac mini as if it were directly connected to your monitor, keyboard,

and mouse.

There are three methods you can use to switch between your connected computers:

• Touch-sensitive button

• Desktop icon

• Keyboard hot keys

Touch-Sensitive Button:

To switch access to your other computer, simply push the button on the front of your

KVM. After about three seconds, your other computer’s desktop will appear on your monitor.

The number “2” on the front of your KVM will be lit. You are now ready to use your other

computer as if it were directly connected to your monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

To switch back to your Mac mini, simply push the button again on your KVM.

Desktop Icon:

You can also switch from one computer to the next by using the icon on your

computer’s desktop. For Mac OS computers, this icon will be available in the menu bar in the

upper-right corner of your screen once you successfully install the switching software (see

“Installing Switching Software”). For Windows-based computers, the icon will appear in the

taskbar in the lower-right corner of your screen.

To switch computers, click once on the icon (for Mac OS computers) or right-click on the

icon (for Windows-based computers). You will have three switching options to choose from.

To switch all your connected peripherals to the next computer, select “Switch Host”. To switch

only your speakers to the next computer, select “Switch Audio”. This feature allows you to

listen to your music files on one computer while you work on the other computer. To switch

only your monitor, keyboard, and mouse to the next computer, select “Switch Control”.

Keyboard Hot Keys:

You can also switch between computers by pressing the “Ctrl” button on your keyboard twice

in rapid succession. This is called a “hot-key sequence.” To enable hot-key switching, click or

right-click on the icon, select “Options”, and then select “Enable Hotkey Switching”. You

can also change to a different hot-key sequence in the “Options” screen. If you want to use

the same hot-key sequence for both computers, you will need to repeat these steps for each

computer. You can choose from among the following four sequences:

• Ctrl, Ctrl

• NumLock/Clear, NumLock/Clear

• Scroll Lock, Scroll Lock

• Ctrl, Ctrl, Shift

(For each hot-key sequence, the buttons must be pressed in rapid succession.)
