6. Operation
F5 – TUNING
As computers are located further away from the KVM switch, the video can become distorted. In the
event you are experiencing poor video quality, the TUNING function can be used to correct it. Press
the [F5] key to display the currently selected port, with the TUNING bar displayed. Use the [←] and
[→] keys to make the necessary adjustments. When you are finished, press the [Esc] key to go
back to the OSD. Note: Tuning is performed on a port-by-port basis. You will need to adjust each
port individually.
F6 – MOVE LABEL
By default, the label that displays each ports Port Name appears in the top-center of the screen, but
it can be moved anywhere on the screen that you want. Press the [F6] key to display the currently
selected port and its label. Use the [↑], [↓], [←] and [→] keys to move the label to the desired
location, and then press the [Esc] key to go back to the OSD. Note: Setting the label location is
performed on one port at a time. You can move the label to different locations on different ports.
F10 – NEW MONITOR – DDC2
In the event that one of the connected computers does not display an image on the console
monitor (e.g. You get the error message 'Unable to Display Video Mode'), you may need to update
the DDC information being used by the console monitor. To do this, follow the steps below.
1. Remove the SIU VGA connectors from the connected computers, while leaving the PS/2 and /or
USB connectors plugged in.
2. Open the OSD main menu and press the [F10] key. The OSD will flash the message "Please
Wait." When that message disappears, the update is complete.
3. Reconnect the SIU VGA connectors to the connected computers. You should now be able to
display video from all of the remote computers.

Description
By default, the Security setting is turned off. To activate the Security setting,
highlight it and press the [Spacebar]. Upon pressing the [Spacebar], you
will be prompted to enter the administrator password in order to change the
Security setting. The default administrator password is ADMIN. For security
purposes, it is recommended that you update the administrator password
to something unique. (See the Security Settings section for details) Note:
When security is activated, the keyboard hotkey commands are disabled,

computers. Upon pressing the [Shift] [Shift] invocation command, you will
be prompted to enter your password before the OSD can be accessed. The
security settings in this OSD are exclusive to the local console, and do not
affect the remote access security settings.
