5.3. Common PC Source Connection Methods

Image: This diagram illustrates four different connection scenarios for desktops and laptops, including using DisplayPort to HDMI cables, USB-C to HDMI adapters, and docking stations. It emphasizes that each PC must connect both HDMI input ports (e.g., 1A & 1B) and the USB host port of the KVM switch for dual monitor setup.
Nota Penting:
- Ensure each PC connects both HDMI input ports (e.g., 1A & 1B) and the USB host port of the KVM switch for dual monitor setup. Otherwise, one of the monitors may not display any image.
- It is recommended to use high-quality converter cables/docking stations produced by a professional manufacturer. Otherwise, the monitors may not display any image.

- Display Mode 1 (KVM Mode): Both monitors display the same PC (mirrored) or an extended desktop from a single PC.
- Display Mode 2 (USB Mode): Monitor A displays PC 1, and Monitor B displays PC 2 simultaneously. The keyboard, mouse, and USB devices can be switched between the two PCs.
6.3. Advanced EDID Emulation Function
The KVM switch incorporates EDID emulation to prevent common display issues when switching between computers.
