1 Purpose and Functions
This high-end 2x1 HDMI KVM switch is an advanced device that enables efficient management of two computers or recorders using only one set of peripherals: keyboard, mouse, and monitor. With data throughput support of 10.2 Gbps and 4K resolution, the device ensures superior image quality and smooth operation. The switch is designed for cross-platform hardware integration, offering support for Windows, Linux, Mac OS, and solutions such as Raspberry Pi.
The integrated USB 2.0 hub allows for sharing additional devices, such as printers, barcode scanners, or portable drives, between the two connected central units. The device features a robust, aesthetic, compact housing, which makes it easy to organize your workspace.
Main Features:
- ✔ Use only 1 set of keyboard, mouse, and monitor to control two computers, recorders, etc.
- ✔ Data throughput up to: 10.2 Gbps
- ✔ Supports hotkeys to control the KVM switch
- ✔ Supports resolutions up to 4K @ 30Hz
- ✔ USB 2.0 support for printers, USB drives, and other accessories
- ✔ Supports automatic switching of all devices for monitoring at a specified time interval

5 Troubleshooting
No image on the monitor:
Check if the HDMI cables are securely connected. Ensure that the computer is sending a signal in a supported resolution (max. 4K @ 30Hz).
Keyboard or mouse not responding:
Make sure the USB cables from the switch are connected to the USB ports on the computers. Try connecting the devices to other USB ports on the KVM.
Hotkeys do not work:
Ensure the keyboard is connected to the dedicated USB port intended for the keyboard (emulation), not to the USB Hub port.
