TROUBLESHOOTING
Q: Do I have to install any software to use the Switch?
A: No, the Switch does not require any drivers or software to be installed on your
computers. Simply connect all your computers to the PC ports on the Switch,
then attach one monitor, mouse, and keyboard to the corresponding console
ports and your Switch is ready for use.
Q: Does the Switch require an AC adapter?
A: The Switch can be powered by the PS/2 keyboard port of your computer. An
optional 9V DC, 600mA power adapter may be used for instances where power
cannot be drawn from a PS/2 port of a computer.
Q: Can I use the Switch to switch video signals only?
A: Yes, you may use the Switch to switch between video signals only without
having to connect the keyboard and mouse. The keyboard and mouse should
be connected directly to the computer that the video signal is taken from to
ensure that your computer functions properly.
Note: The Switch will require the use of the optional AC power adapter since power
cannot be drawn from the computer via the keyboard or through a USB port.
Q: How long is the warranty for the Switch?
A: The Switch comes with a Three-Year Limited Warranty.
