English Manual

Operation

Important note: Your monitor will only display one PC signal at any one time. All keyboard and mouse commands are sent to this PC only. After initial power up, port 1 is active by default.

When a PC is connected to the currently selected port and it is not switched on, or is in sleep mode, the monitor will not display any signal.

Password Security

When you power on the CPU Switch it will ask you for a password. The default password is eight zeros –“00000000”. Please key in eight zeros in the password field.

Note: Please don’t change the password until you are familiar with the operation of the OSD menu – i.e. keep the default password “00000000”. Otherwise, if you forget the password, you will need to send the CPU Switch back to LINDY for maintenance to clear the password.

Hot Plug Support

The CPU Switch supports a “Hot Plug” function for easy addition or removal of PCs. The user can arrange or maintain the PCs as follows:

a.A PC can be disconnected and reconnected to the same or different port of the KVM switch without having to power it off as long as it is currently not connected to the console.

b.The mouse driver of the PC has to support the hot plug function or the computer may need to be rebooted when it is reconnected.

c.You can unplug your mouse or keyboard from the console port and plug it back in at any time. You should not use different types of mice when doing this

d.A SLAVE CPU switch can be added or removed at any time, but after adding or removing a switch you must reboot all of the CPU switches. You DO NOT need to reboot the computers.

Please note: Some Operating Systems such as certain Unix versions are unable to support the “Hot Plug” function. If you Hot Plug when using this kind of O.S., it may cause unpredictable operation or may shut down the PC. Before attempting to use the Hot Plug feature, please make sure you’re O.S. and mouse software driver support the Hot Plug feature.
