Overview - Hawking CS112U User Manual

The CS112U USB & PS/2 2-Port KVM Switch is a control unit that allows access to
multiple PCs from a single console (keyboard, monitor and mouse). It supports both
USB & PS/2 plugs - USB & PS2 Mouse, USB & PS/2 Keyboard, and VGA/SVGA
Video. Before the development of the CS112U, the only way to control multiple
computer configurations from a single console was through a complex and costly
network system. Now, with the CS112U, you can easily access multiple computers in a
cost effective manner.
The CS112U unit can control up to 2 PCs, all from a single console.
Setup is fast and easy; it only requires the user to plug the cables into the appropriate
ports. There is no software to configure, so there is no need to get involved in complex
installation routines or to be concerned with incompatibility problems. Since the CS112U
intercepts keyboard input directly, it works on any hardware platform and with all
operating systems.
The CS112U provides two convenient methods to access any PC that is connected to the
system: (1) using the push button port selection switch located on top of the unit's panel;
(2) entering HotKey combinations from the keyboard. In addition, a powerful Quick
View Scan feature allows you to auto scan and monitor the activities of all operating PCs
on the installation one by one.
There is no better way to save time and money. By allowing a single console to manage
all the attached PCs, the CS112U eliminates the expense of purchasing a separate
keyboard, monitor, and mouse for each PC, and saves all the extra space as well. It also
eliminates the inconvenience and unnecessary effort involved in constantly moving
around from a PC to another.
