Operation Notes
When turning on or rebooting your computers, the 2x1 DVI KVM Switcher must
be selected to the computer that is booting until the computer completes the boot
cycle. This step can be eliminated using the Gefen DVI Detective.
If you lose your picture when switching from source 1 to source 2 or vice-versa
you will require a DVI Detective.
If you are experiencing USB dropouts try using the switcher just as a USB hub
by only connecting the USB cables from your computers to the switcher. Con-
nect your devices to the USB out portion of the switcher and connect your display
to your computer directly. Start your computer up and try switching. If your USB
devices do come up normally then you will need a DVI Detective to negotiate the
video/USB signals for faster switching. If they do not come up normally, then you
will need to call tech support.
