    Secure KM Switch Controls and Modes Keyboard and Mouse As with Belkin’s Secure KVMs, each of the KM’s keyboard and mouse USB ports is isolated from one another using the same optical data diode technology to eliminate signal leakage.

    • Product Model – The product model can be found on the product label of the KM switch. The Belkin Secure KMs come in 4, and 8 input models. • Mouse Speed – This is the default mouse speed for all systems. Changing the mouse speed on each computer will not affect the KM mouse speed.
  • Page 10 Working with Multiple Monitors per Computer When using more than one display per computer, Microsoft Windows’ display options must be synchronized with the KM for proper operation. Microsoft Windows maps monitors into a virtual desktop, allowing a user to move the mouse cursor from one monitor to the other. The KM must understand how these monitors are mapped in a Windows desktop environment and which monitor defines the edge between channels so as to invoke SCS channel switching.
  • Page 11 which monitor is the main display by selecting it in the array of displays as shown below. Main display identified in Windows 3) Select the appropriate number of monitors in the KMCreator dialog for Computer 1. Selecting more than 1 monitor, exposes the additional details. 4) Enter the details for you primary (main) display as requested in the dialog.
  • Page 12 Windows 7 and Windows 8 computers. b. Windows 10 hides these coordinates, requiring the administrator to calculate the relative position as follows: i. The Primary monitor has XY coordinates 0,0 mapped to its upper left-hand corner. ii. If the monitor is a 1920x1080 monitor, the coordinates of the second monitor immediately to its right will start at 1920,0 assuming both monitors are in landscape mode.
  • Page 13 Example 2: Both configurations below create identical setups in which the mouse cursor moves from the right of computer 2 to the left of computer 1. Example 3: The setup shown in Fig A below will not invoke a SCS-based channel switch as there is no bridge between the two monitors.
  • Page 14 Figure A Figure B Example 4: The two setups below are identical except that on the right setup, the user chose to prevent the mouse cursor from moving from Computer 2, Display2 to Computer 1, Display 1 by clicking on the yellow bridge to toggle it off.
