NTI UNIMUX 2-Port USB DVI KVM Switch INSTALLATION Connect The Cables It is not necessary to turn OFF power to either of the CPUs that will be connected to the UNIMUX 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 UNIMUX and only after the keyboard is connected and the UNIMUX is powered ON.
NTI UNIMUX 2-Port USB DVI KVM Switch Using a USB-AB-x-MM cable connect the USB type A device port of a USB CPU to the USB type B port labeled "CPU 1" on the UNIMUX. Using a DVI-IS-xx-MM connect the DVI video port of the same USB CPU connected in step 5 to the female DVI port labeled "VIDEO 1"...
NTI UNIMUX 2-Port USB DVI KVM Switch Power Up Sequence The UNIMUX 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 UNIMUX. USB devices (keyboard and mouse) can be hot plugged to and from the UNIMUX at any time.
NTI UNIMUX 2-Port USB DVI KVM Switch USING THE NTI SWITCH The NTI UNIMUX-DVI-2 can be operated by the CPU SELECT button on the side of the switch or by keyboard control. CPU Select Pressing the CPU SELECT button on the UNIMUX will toggle between CPU 1 and CPU 2 which connects the selected CPU •...
1. Disconnect power from the UNIMUX 2. Press and hold the CPU SELECT button on the switch 3. Re-connect power to the switch 4. Release the CPU SELECT button NOTE: Command Mode not available on model UNIMUX-DVI-2-NBSC.
Figure 5- Flashing LED means CPU is being scanned NOTE: The keyboard and mouse must remain idle for the full scan time out period before the UNIMUX will connect to the other port. NOTE: Scan Mode not available on model UNIMUX-DVI-2-NBSC. Broadcast Mode (use with extreme caution) Broadcast Mode allows the user to send keystrokes to all active CPUs.
NTI UNIMUX 2-Port USB DVI KVM Switch KEYBOARD FEATURES The keyboard configuration of each CPU is saved in the UNIMUX. For example, if the CPU attached to Port 2 had CAPS LOCK and NUM LOCK selected the last time that CPU was accessed, then they will automatically be set when that CPU is accessed again.

NTI UNIMUX 2-Port USB DVI KVM Switch It is also possible to configure the UNIMUX 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.
