INSTALLATION (Continued)
Multi-Head Units:
1.
Ensure that power is turned off or disconnected from the unit and the computers.
2.
Use DVI cables to connect the DVI output ports of each computer to the corresponding DVI-I IN ports of the unit.
For example, if using KVS4-2004DX the four DVI ports of one computer must all be connected to one channel.
The DVI-I IN connectors that belong to the same channel are arranged vertically.
3. Use a USB cable (Type-A to Type-B) to connect a USB port on each computer to the respective USB ports of the unit.
4. Optionally connect a stereo audio cable (3.5mm on both ends) to connect the audio output of the computer to the
AUDIO IN ports of the unit.
5. Connect the monitors to the DVI-I OUT console ports of the unit using DVI cables.
The DVI-I IN ports on one row will be switched to the DVI-I OUT of the same row.
6. Connect a USB keyboard and mouse in the two USB console ports.
7. Optionally connect stereo speakers to the AUDIO OUT port of the unit.
8. Optionally connect CAC (smart card reader) to the CAC port in the user console interface.
9. Power on the Secure KVM Switch by connecting a 12VDC power supply to the power connector, and then turn on all
the computers.
Note:
VGA-to-DVI adapter must be used if video input sources are analog. Also, if the monitors connected to the outputs
are dual-link DVI monitors, then DVI-I cables must be used from each computer.
Note:
The computer connected to port 1 will always be selected by default after power up.
