Operation
There are two methods to control your KVM Switch for PC and Audio/Mic channel
selection: front panel pushbuttons or keyboard hotkey sequence.
Front Panel Pushbuttons
The front panel pushbuttons provide direct control over KVM switching operation.
Simply press the button to switch to the corresponding PC port (as well as the audio/
mic channel ports and USB Hub if binding is enabled). By default, PC port switching,
audio/mic port switching, and USB Hub port switching are all bound together, unless
you bind the audio to a specic port.
Please note: You can use the front panel pushbuttons to switch to an empty port
(not connected to a host computer), however the keyboard hotkey sequence cannot
perform this same action.
