Front Panel Control

There is a touch-switch and LED on the front panel of the KEEMUX-USBV-xU KVM switch for each CPU the switch will
connect the monitor and input devices to. Pressing any touch-switch on the front panel of the KEEMUX-USBV-xU KVM switch will
connect the selected CPU to the monitor and input devices.
Holding down any front panel touch-switch for more than 2 seconds will cause the KEEMUX-USBV-xU KVM switch to cycle
through all modes of operation including COMMAND, SCAN, and NORMAL (described on page 8). The two MODE LEDs on the
front panel indicate which mode is selected. Release the touch-switch when the LEDs indicate the desired mode. When no mode
LEDs are illuminated the user is in Normal Mode controlling directly the CPU to which the user is connected through the
KEEMUX-USBV-xU KVM switch.
Keyboard Control
Keyboard control of the KEEMUX-USBV-xU KVM switch can be achieved through either
• Basic Command Mode- Basic Command Mode is operated strictly by using keyboard commands as instructed below.
Command Mode is only applicable if the OSD option is not built into the switch.
-OR-
• OSD Command Mode (OSD is purchased as a separate option)- OSD Command Mode is operated using the input devices in
conjunction with On Screen Display (OSD) menus superimposed onto the monitor. If OSD is built in, use the menus as
instructed on page 11.
By pressing <Ctrl> + ` (accent key), the user can enter Command Mode (either Basic, or OSD). Once in Command Mode, typing
a series of commands will cause the KEEMUX-USBV-xU KVM switch to connect the user to any one CPU connected to the
switch. Pressing the <Esc> key will exit Command Mode.
