Instruction Manual

Operation

You may select a computer by pressing the front panel push button
directly, by issuing hot-key commands or by activating the OSD window.
The front panel indicator changes to reflect the computer port selected
(red) and whether the port is connected to a powered computer (green).
The indicator flashes red when it is in either Auto Scan or Manual Scan
mode.

Push Button controls

To select control of an attached computer, press the front panel button
that corresponds with the assigned computer number. For 16 port mod-
els, 1 to 8 represents the lower 8 ports, while A to H indicates the higher
ports. Ports 1 and A share the same pushbutton, as do 2 and B, 3 and C
etc.
Example: If port 1 is already selected and you wish to switch to Port A,
tap the shared pushbutton once to select Port A. If Port 1 is not selected,
press and hold pushbutton 1 for two seconds to select Port A.

K/M Reset

K/M Reset resolves the majority of problems developed by keyboard and/
or mouse device replacement or configuration changes. Press down but-
tons 1 and 2 simultaneously for 2 seconds to reconfigure the whole sys-
tem without having to turn off the KVM switch or any attached computers.

Auto Scan

This KVM switch provides an easy to use feature to start Auto Scanning.
To use this function, simultaneously press buttons 7 and 8 and hold for
two seconds. (SV431DUSB uses buttons 3 and 4 to launch this function).
