Introduction - Tripp Lite B006-VU4-1 Owner's Manual

1. Introduction

The B006-VU4-1 4-Port PS/2-USB KVM Switch is a desktop control unit that allows users to access four computers from
a single KVM console (PS/2 or USB keyboard and mouse, and VGA monitor). The B006-VU4-1 is designed with Display
Resolution Optimization and boot-up display enhancement for faster switching, which eliminates boot-up display problems
and optimizes resolution. The unit features dual console keyboard and mouse ports, so any combination of PS/2 or USB
keyboard and mouse can be used.
There are three convenient methods to access the computers: port selection pushbuttons located on the unit's front panel;
hotkey combinations entered from the keyboard; and the very latest in mouse port-switching – simply double-click on the
scroll wheel of a USB mouse to change ports.
The B006-VU4-1 also permits each computer to access any peripherals connected to the mouse USB ports (when mouse
emulation is turned off).
Setup is fast and easy, simply plug cables into their appropriate ports. There is no software to configure, no installation
routines and no incompatibility problems. Since the B006-VU4-1 intercepts keyboard input directly, it will work on multiple
computing platforms.
There is no better way to save time and money than with a B006-VU4-1 installation. Since a single console manages all
of the computers, the B006-VU4-1 setup eliminates the expense of having to purchase separate console components for
each computer, saves all the space those extra components would take up, saves on energy costs and eliminates the
inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly moving from one computer to another.
