Introduction

The 2/4-port Slim Palmtop USB KVM Switch is with optional
audio and microphone switching function. It allows you to access,
control, boot and reboot multiple USB-enabled computers. The
independent audio/mic switching function allows an uninterrupted
audio experience on a same connected computer even when you
switch to another computer.
For Windows and Mac platforms, it provides an innovative and
easy-to-use KVM Switcher Software -- a small windows client
application to facilitate your KVM switching operations such as
PC selection and hotkey sequence programming, autoscanning,
autoscan delay time programming, independent/simultaneous
audio&PC switching, etc.

Out-of-the-box Installation

Take the Companion CDROM and the KVM Switch out of the box
and follow the steps below for installation….

Step 1. Insert the companion CD ROM into your CD drive, and

the Autorun screen will pop up (If the Autorun feature

has not been enabled on your computer. Just find the
Autorun.exe on the CDROM and double-click it to start).


Step 2.
For Windows/Mac: Just click the “Software Installation

for Window/Mac” to start installation. (If the Mac version
software does not start, you should then copy it to your
local Hard disk on Mac). Follow the instructions to
completion. If the instillation is complete, you will see a
KVM Switcher icon on the system tray of your desktop.
Right-click to evoke the operation menu and double-
click to evoke the configuration box. For operation
details of the KVM Switcher software, please refer to the

The KVM Switcher Software supports both the Windows and the

Mac OS operating systems. For other OS platforms such as Linux, you
can still use the keyboard hotkey - ScrLk + ScrLK - to switch PC.
However, this switching hotkey is not available on non-PC platform such
as MacOS.

Step 3. Connect the shared USB keyboard, mouse, monitor,

speaker/headphone and microphone each to its port on
your KVM Switch.

Step 4. Connect each KVM PC port to a computer, using the

slim 3-in-1 KVM combo cable and the audio/mic cable.
After you have connected the KVM and computers
properly, you can operate the KVM Switch immediately.

Some older computers with USB interface might need to manually
enable the USB option in the BIOS settings before you can use any
USB devices. If your USB interface does not work, please check the
USB option in the BIOS.

If you use Windows 95/98/SE or Mac OS and has not yet installed a
USB mouse on your computer, there might be an error message
telling you that mouse is not detected and prompting you to decide
whether to ignore the same message in the future, and yet you will
find there is no mouse movement to disable this message….So it is
suggested that you should installed your USB mouse on your
computer first, before connecting it to this KVM Switch.
