If you are not using a power adapter, check that the keyboard cable is connected and inserted properly between the computer and MATRIX2 for the appropriate port.

If you are using the MATRIX2 only for video switching, and have no keyboard and mouse connection between the MATRIX2 and PC, you will need to purchase the optional 9V DC, 600mA power adapter (F1D065-PWR for your appropriate country).

Connect your monitor directly to the computer to verify that your monitor is functioning properly.
