Solo Buttons; Independent Usb Switching - Gefen EXT-DVIK-MV-441 User Manual

Solo Buttons

By default, video, USB, and audio are switched simultaneously each time a different
source is selected. However, the switcher provides you with the ability to independently
route USB. This might be useful, for example, if you want to maintain the video connection
to Source 1 but temporarily switch USB control to Source 3.
1. Press the USB button on the front panel.
2. The USB button will glow solid blue. The switcher is now in solo USB mode. This will
allow us to switch USB independently of video and audio.

source.
In the example, below, we have switched to Source 3. Now, both video and audio are
coming from Source 1 but USB control is on Source 3.
