INTRODUCTION The KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch allows one user to access two USB CPUs with only one USB keyboard, USB mouse, and 15HD VGA monitor. Internal microprocessors allow both CPUs to boot simultaneously and error-free. Port selection is accomplished by a front panel push button or commands typed on the keyboard.
FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS Front View of KEEMUX-USBV-2U Rear View of KEEMUX-USBV-2U FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS 1. 5VDC- connection jack for the AC adapter 2. USB DEVICES- USB type A female receptacles- for connection of user USB device(s) 3. CPU Status/Mode LEDs- for visual indication of switch connection between the user and a specific CPU as well as mode status 4.
INSTALLATION It is not necessary to turn OFF power to either of the CPUs that will be connected to the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch before connecting or disconnecting any cables. NOTE: If a CPU needs to identify a keyboard, it will be necessary to power ON the CPU after it is connected to the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch and only after the keyboard is connected and the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch is powered ON.

Using a VEXT-xx-MM connect the video port of the same USB CPU connected in step 5 to the female 15HD port labeled "VIDEO 1" on the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch . Be sure to tighten the two screws on the cable connector to the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch securely.
POWER-UP SEQUENCE The KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch can be powered at any time. The CPUs can be powered at any time although if a CPU needs a keyboard and/or mouse at power-ON it should be powered after connecting to and powering-ON the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch.
(Lxx would be L00-L34, see Country Codes Table on page 9) country code for the keyboard (This will print the version of the code in the KEEMUX-USBV-2U switch to a text editor Print the code window for use when troubleshooting the switch)
Normal Mode The KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch is in Normal Mode when only the LED for the active CPU is illuminated solid (not flashing as in Scan Mode). When in Normal Mode, the user is controlling only the CPU to which the user is connected through the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch.
Keyboard-To-Computer Translation (See Fig. 4 on page 9 for reference.) The NTI KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch enables a mixture of otherwise incompatible peripheral computer components to be connected together. This is accomplished by performing keyboard-to-computer translations automatically (i.e. translate a MAC keyboard and mouse to a Windows type CPU).
Sun keyboard, follow this procedure: 1. Disconnect the CPU from the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch 2. Connect the international keyboard to be used to the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch 3. Disconnect power to the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch for at least 3 seconds 4.
It is also possible to configure the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch to emulate a specific international Sun keyboard regardless of what actual keyboard is connected. This is recommended when the CPU needs the layout code (i.e. a SUN CPU) and the keyboard doesn't have an explicit layout code (i.e. some Windows keyboards). To do this, manually set the KEEMUX-USBV-2U USB KVM switch to indicate the international keyboard identification number to the CPU using the following procedure;...
