(De)activating channels

Up to four computers can be connected to the KVM switch. The installed console at

the device is enabled to access these channels.

The unused channels can be deactivated if less than four computers are connected to

the KVM switch. These channel can no longer be accessed and the monitoring data

are not analysed.

How to (de)activate a channel of the KVM switch:

Activating or resetting a PS/2 mouse

Compared to USB mouses, PS/2 mouses do not support hot plug technology. You

can therefore insert the PS/2 plug during operation, but it may be possible that the

computer does not detect the input device.

To enable or reset the PS/2 mouse, the KVM switch can be used to send a special

command to the computer.

Since the commands differ depending on the mouse type and the installed operating

system, four different setup keys are provided.
