Overview

The LINDY CPU Switch LITE USB 2.0 combines control of up to 4 computers from one PS/2 or USB keyboard, mouse and monitor, with the facility to share USB 2.0/1.1 devices.

The unit requires no software installation. Any modern USB 2.0 enabled operating system will support both the switch and the USB hub. Simply connect the cables and turn on the devices!

CPU Switch function

With the CPU Switch you can eliminate the cost of additional accessories, save valuable desk space and remove all of the problems associated with using multiple keyboards, monitors and mice. The CPU Switch LITE USB 2.0 provides flexible switching between the connected computers, using either the built-in button or PC keyboard hotkeys.

Note: Keyboard hotkey switching is not supported when using USB Mac/Sun keyboards!

USB Share function

When using a PS/2 PC keyboard and mouse, the USB Share function allows USB devices to be switched independently from the ‘PS/2 + VGA’ part of the CPU Switch. This means you can switch keyboard, monitor and mouse from one computer whilst keeping the USB devices connected to the other. For example, you can print to a USB printer from PC 1, and then switch your keyboard, monitor and mouse to PC 2, leaving the USB printer still connected to PC 1.

Restrictions when using 4D/5D and wireless mice, and extended multimedia keyboards

The CPU Switch LITE USB 2.0 interprets and converts PS/2 to USB signals and then sends them via the USB bus to the attached computers. The official PS/2 to USB Conversion Standard does not define any proprietary function for mice with more than 3 buttons and 1 wheel. Also, it does not define a conversion standard for the additional keys of extended multimedia keyboards. Furthermore, there is no conversion standard for special wireless functions like battery status monitoring and RF device ID identification etc. The CPU Switch LITE USB 2.0 is not able to convert these special functions from PS/2 to USB, indeed these functions will not work with any current KVM switch which features PS/2 to USB conversion!

Note: If you need these extra functions you can use USB mice and keyboards – but you will lose the advanced keyboard hotkey switching features, and some of the USB Share functionality!
