Connecting & Operating The 4X1 Dvi Kvm Dl/Sl Switcher - Gefen EXT-DVIKVM-441DL User Manual

CONNECTING & OPERATING THE 4X1 DVI KVM DL/SL SWITCHER
How to Connect the 4x1 DVI KVM DL/SL Switcher to your devices:
1. Connect your computers' DVI, USB, and Audio sources to the 4x1 DVI KVM
DL/SL Switcher inputs using user-supplied cables.
2. Connect your USB and audio devices to the USB and audio outputs using
user-supplied cables.
3. Connect your DVI display to the DVI output of the 4x1 DVI KVM DL/SL
Switcher using a user-supplied DVI cable.
4. Connect the 5V DC power supply to the Switcher by by screwing its 5V DC
power supply tip into the receptacle in the rear of the unit, then plug it into the
wall.
5. Turn on the DVI display or projector fi rst, then the DVI video sources/
computers.
Note: Computers must be turned on one at a time and the switcher must
be selected to the computer that is booting up. This is so that monitor
information (EDID) can be transmitted from the display to each computer.
After one computer completes the startup process, you can boot up the
second computer and repeat the process with the remaining computers. This
can be avoided with the use of the LOCAL EDID mode (page 11) that will
constantly supply each computer with an EDID. In this scenario, an
EDID stored in the local memory location, or user uploaded EDID, is
supplied to each input for use by the connected source device. Then, each
computer can boot up in any order and at anytime, regardless of which
computer the switch is selected to.
How to Operate the 4x1 DVI KVM DL/SL Switcher:
1. Use the RMT-4IR remote control to remotely switch between DVI video
sources.
2. Alternatively, use a RS-232 control system or the front panel selection
button.
