Connecting Computers to the KVM Switch (USB Connection)
Note: Early versions of Windows operating system do not automatically install HID devices. Manual installation of the HID driver may be required.
1.Using the OmniView ENTERPRISE Series
2.Connect the USB connector of your KVM cable to the computer. If your computer is running Windows Me or later, skip to step 6. Otherwise, continue with step 3.
3.Boot up the computer you wish to connect via USB, as you would normally, with the keyboard, mouse, and monitor connected directly to the computer.
4.Take the USB cable attached to the KVM Switch and connect it to an available USB port on your computer.
5.Your computer should detect and identify the KVM Switch as a generic mouse and keyboard. Manually install the HID device driver by selecting “Next” through the Windows Hardware Wizard until the HID devices are completely installed (the KVM Switch will install four devices if not previously installed on your system: a HID keyboard, a HID mouse, a generic keyboard, and a generic mouse). The driver installation only needs to be done once for each computer; the KVM Switch will be enumerated automatically in the future. When driver installation is complete, power down the computer and disconnect the keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
6.Connect the male VGA HDDB15 connector located on one end of the KVM cable to the VGA port on the computer.
7.Repeat steps 1 through 6 for each additional computer you wish to connect to the KVM Switch via USB.
Note: For USB Installation
We recommend you attach the KVM cable directly to a free USB port on your computer, not through a USB hub.
