Troubleshooting
Keyboard/ Mouse
If your keyboard or mouse is not functional, not detected, or there is a keyboard/mouse error on boot-
up, check the following:
•
Make sure that the cables are properly connected between the DKVM-4U and the computer(s), and
the keyboard/mouse to the DKVM-4U.
•
Verify that the keyboard/mouse works when plugged into the computer directly. You will have to
shut down your computer first to do this.
•
Try using a different keyboard/mouse.
•
If mouse movement is random when switching between computers, try shutting down your
computer and rebooting.
•
If a special mouse such as a cordless or scrolling mouse is used, make sure you use generic USB
mouse drivers. A non-standard USB mouse may have extensions on the USB protocol that are not
supported by the DKVM-4U.
•
Do not move the mouse or press any mouse buttons when switching from one PC to another.
•
Try resetting the mouse by unplugging it from the DKVM-4U for about 3 seconds and reconnecting.
Video
If the image on your monitor is not clear, check the following:
•
Verify that all video monitor cables are inserted properly.
•
Try lowering the resolution and refresh rate of your monitor.
•
Try using a shorter video cable.
