2x1 DVI SL OPERATION NOTES

Operation Notes

When turning on or rebooting your computers, the DVI SL 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, which stores the displays EDID.
If you loose your picture when switch from source 1 to source 2 or vice-versa you will
need 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. Connect 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.
