Using your Switch

	Selecting a Computer Using Port Selectors		1

	Now that you have connected your console and computers to the Switch,		2
	it is ready for use. You can select which computer you wish to control by
	pressing the corresponding port selector on the front of the Switch. The LED
			3
	will illuminate to indicate which computer (or port) is currently selected. It

	takes approximately 1–2 seconds for the video signal to refresh after switching
	computers. Re-synchronization of the mouse and keyboard signals also
			4
	occurs. This is normal operation and ensures that proper synchronization is
	established between the console and the connected computers.5
			5
	Once you press a port selector, the Switch immediately disables the connection
	between your console and the previously selected computer, and establishes

	a new connection between your console and the new computer selected.		6
	Keyboard and mouse inputs can only be sent to the selected computer, and

	video outputs can only be received from the selected computer. The Switch also		7
	prevents
	any data transfer between connected computers, ensuring the security of

your computers.

Please note that the default port at power-up is port one. In case of a power failure or if the power is cycled, the Switch will default to port one.

5Note: It may take longer for your mouse and keyboard to re-synchronize when the computer is recovering (or initializing) from Standby, Hibernate, or Sleep modes.
