Instruction Manual

OPTIONAL: If connecting a computer system to the Console Unit, switch o the

computer and disconnect any existing devices. Using the provided StarTech.com

integrated USB, DVI, Audio KVM cable, connect the computer system to the Console

Unit’s “Computer” connectors. Reconnect any necessary peripheral devices to the Host

computer, removed previously.

Before Cascading with KVM Switch

If connecting the Extender to a KVM switch, make sure that the following have been

completed before connecting the KVM Switch to the Console or Computer Unit.

1. Determine whether a DVI or HDMI display will be used, and then, on the Computer

Unit, set monitor display mode to DVI ( [Press and hold Selection button for 2

seconds] - [V ] - [D] ) or HDMI ( [Press and hold Selection button for 2 seconds] - [V] -

[M] ) accordingly. (The signal from the Computer Unit is transmitted to the Console

Unit in one direction only, so it is not necessary to make this setting on the Console

Unit)

2. Enable Compatibility Mode by entering the hotkey command ( [Ctrl] - [Ctrl] - [Alt] +

[E] ) and then two beeps should be generated as the conrmation. In Compatibility

Mode, set the control to Local or Remote by inputting the hotkey ( [Ctrl] - [Ctrl] - [T] ).

If the KVM Switch is directly connected to Computer Unit, switch ON the Mask

Hotkey switch on both Units. If the KVM Switch is directly connected to the Console

Unit, switch ON the Mask Hotkey switch on the Console Unit only.

Connect the KVM Switch to the Console or Computer Unit after above set up completed.

Driver Installation

The KVM Extender is a complete hardware solution so no software or driver installation

is required on any computer system.
