The KVM Switch is able to toggle between your
PCs using nothing but the console's keyboard. This
allows you to switch between PCs without having
to touch the Switch. These keyboard commands are
called Hot Keys.
Hot Key Function One — Select the Active PC
2-Port KVM Switch To switch between PCs with
the 2-Port KVM Switch, simply hit the CTRL key
twice. You must hit the same CTRL key twice.
Pressing one, then the other, will not work.
4-Port KVM Switch Each PC on your KVM Switch is assigned an ID
number (PC 1, PC 2, etc.), depending on through which set of ports the
PC uses to connect to the switch. By using a combination of keys, you can
designate which PC you'd like to control.
1. Press and release ALT, then CTRL, then SHIFT, one at a time.
2. Select a PC by pressing and releasing its corresponding number (1, 2, etc.)
from the top of your keyboard.
3. Hit Enter.
