WARNING!

Before attempting to connect anything to the

DKVM-8E or the computers, make sure everything is powered off . Otherwise, plugging and unplugging cables may cause irreversible damage to your computers and the DKVM-8E.

Please follow the steps below closely and in the order as shown, otherwise, keyboard and/or mouse errors may occur.

Step 1

- 5 -

Find a convenient place to put your DKVM-8E. Its 19” rack mount form factor makes it ideal mountable on 19” rack.

When mounting to a rack, attach the included brackets to the sides of the DKVM-8E. Take note of the length of your cables so that your computers, DKVM-8E, keyboard, mouse and monitor are distanced properly.

Step 2

Connect the monitor to the DKVM-8E. Using the attached cable, or the one included with your monitor, connect it to the HD DB-15 female port on the back of the DKVM-8E labeled with the monitor symbol at the CONSOLE connector.

- 6 -

Step 3

Connect the keyboard to the DKVM-8E. If you have an AT type keyboard, you will need an AT to PS/2 adapter.

Step 4

Connect the mouse to the DKVM-8E.

Step 5

Now the PC connections will be made with the monitor

(VGA) connections first. Connect a VGA cable (15-pin

HDDB Male / Male) with the Male side to both of the PC and the rear panel of the DKVM-8E unit to the connector

- 7 -

labeled VGA. Repeat this for all PCs.

Back of

PC

Step 7

Connect the first computer’s keyboard cable to the DKVM-

8E. Using another PS/2 cable connect one end to PS/2 keyboard port on the computer, and the other end to the

PC1 keyboard port on the back of DKVM-8E. If your

- 8 -

computer has an AT type keyboard port, you will need a

PS/2 to AT keyboard adapter.

Back of PC

Step 8

Double-check all of the connections. Make sure the keyboard and mouse cables go to the correct ports.

Step 9

Repeat step 5 to 8 for the remainder of the computers.

Step 10

N

OTE

:

Please be remind to plug in power adapter. Although the

PCs connected to DKVM-8E are able to support enough power to the stand alone switch, DKVM-8E still needs a power adapter for daisy chain more banks. If you forgot to plug in power adapter on the status of daisy chain, it may cause the unpredictable behavior or shut down the PC.

Step 11

Now power up all computers simultaneously. The first computer will be shown on the monitor. You may check to see if the mouse, keyboard and monitor work after the system has booted up. If this is OK, use the “Select” button to choose the next computer and verify the functionality in the same way. If you find errors, recheck all cables for proper connections before going to the trouble shooting section of this manual.

Q: When I switch from one port to another, mouse movement is completely erratic. What do I do?

A : Switch the console port to the problem PC port and power on this PC again to get the mouse.

Problems with computers using serial mouse output

Note:

The DKVM-8E has integrated mouse conversion technology. This technology converts the PS/2 mouse signals at the console to serial mouse signals.

Q: The computers boot up fine, but the serial mouse port of PC does not work

A: ˙Check the adapter and make sure they are inserted properly in the correct ports.

˙Make sure the adapter pin out is right.

Q: The wheel on the Mouse does not work on my computer. Why?

A: ˙Make sure the mouse is fully compatible to Microsoft®

Intellimouse® or Microsoft® Intellimouse®

Explorer®.

˙DKVM-8E does not support special wheel function of

- 27 -

mouse.

Problems with power supply

Q: The power switch is off, but the switch still works fine or power adapter

Is unplugged from the switch, but the switch still works fine ?

A: DKVM-8E draws the power source from power adapter and PC’s PS2 port. Some PC’s PS2 port can support enough power for the switch, but some PC’s PS2 port ( like laptop, notebook computer…etc.) is unable to supply enough power for the switch. In order to make sure the system can work steadily, please do not set power switch to off state or remove the power adapter from the switch.

Although the PCs connected to DKVM-8E are able to support enough power to the stand alone switch, DKVM-

8E still needs a power adapter for daisy chain more banks.
