Toggle in KVM Mode

With two computers connected to one monitor and the KVM mode option selected , the user can toggle back

and forth from one computer to the other by pressing the left

Ctrl

KVM Mode connection priorities

The section describes KVM Mode connection priorities.

There are 3 types of KVM Mode connections:

USB Type-C uses a USB Type-C cable only.

USB Type-B uses a USB Type-B cable only.

Bind mode uses the current video input port even if the auto-switching USB host is disabled. If the first

computer is disconnected, the KVM Mode setting switches to the powered-on second computer.

The KVM function uses the current video input port even if the auto-switch USB Host is disabled. If the first

computer is disconnected, the KVM Mode setting switches to the powered-on second computer.

In PxP mode, the KVM function offers primary input and secondary input. Each input can be selected when PxP

mode is enabled under OSD. The KVM function defaults to the primary input, which offers the same setting

under the binding set. The user can select a USB Type-B binding set with the DisplayPort or HDMI port, and

selet the USB Type-C binding set with the other video port.

If both computers are powered on and connected, the computer with the primary input connection has priority

over the other computer in PxP mode. If the primary input is disconnected, and other input port is active, the

monitor switches to the active input, and the second binding set is the USB input.

When the USB Type-C connection on a computer is disconnected from the monitor for a long period of time,

for faster monitor switching, you can uncheck the No input signal warning in the OSD.

To uncheck the No input signal warning in the monitor OSD:

1.

Press the Menu button to open the OSD.

2.

In the OSD, select OSD Messages, and then uncheck the No Input Signal Warning.
