5.18 USB-HID Ghosting
This function allows specific keyboard and mice descriptors (device
descriptions) to be permanently stored in the CPU unit. This eliminates the
need to register and deregister the keyboard and mouse on an operating
system each time there is a shared use of a source (computer, CPU) by
two or more consoles within a KVM matrix.
Next to the use of Hot Keys commands (see Chapter 6.13, Page 223) the
activation and management of the USB-HID Ghosting information can also
be handled centrally via KVM matrix to reach all connected KVM
extenders at the same time.
