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 key twice on your keyboard.
NOTE: The keyboard must be connected to the USB Type-A port for KVM connections, found on the back of
the monitor.
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.
