Manual Switching

For enhanced security, the Secure Switch offers manual port switching only. This is achieved by pressing
the port-selection pushbuttons located on the Secure Switch's front panel.
Press and release a port-selection pushbutton to select the corresponding port where the desired
computer is attached. For information on port IDs, see:
maximum security and channel isolation requirements, control of the keyboard, mouse, video, audio,
and USB CAC reader will be switched together.
The selected port's LED turns GREEN to indicate that the connected keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers
(or headset), and CAC reader are redirected to the computer attached to the corresponding port. The
selected computer should be able to detect the peripherals after port switching.
If the computer fails to detect your keyboard, mouse, or CAC card reader, check the following:
•
Verify if you are using a supported keyboard, mouse, or CAC card reader. See:
Peripheral Devices Only
•
Verify if your keyboard, mouse, or CAC reader fails to operate properly.
•
For USB CAC card reader (USB authentication device), verify the USB CAC cable has been securely
connected, and the CAC function is enabled.
•
For USB CAC card reader port, verify if the device you use has been authorized. See:
Readers (on page 10) or consult your administration.

Port ID Numbering

Each KVM port on the Secure Switch is assigned a port number. 1 and 2 for 2-port models, 1 to 4 for 4-
port models, and 1 to 8 for 8-port models. The port numbers are marked on the rear of the Secure
Switch. See Secure Switch Ports and Connectors.
The port ID of a computer is derived from the KVM port number it is connected to.

LED Indicators

In addition to the power LED, there are port LEDs and CAC LED on the Secure Switch's front panel to
indicate Port / CAC reader operation status. These LEDs also serve as the alarm notification for KVM
security issues.
