Introduction
The LDV-DM702AUSK/LDV-DM704AUSK Dual Monitor DVI
KVM Switch is a 2/4-port TMDS-compliant Dual Monitor DVI
KVM Switch designed for sharing two monitors/Flat Panel
Displays between multiple multimedia computers with Dual
Head display [2 x DVI]. Its 7.1 channel surround sound
renders a theater digital audio experience that greatly enlivens
your DVD playbacks or gaming sessions. You can sit back
and enjoy to the full with live audio/video output from this KVM
switch.
This Dual Monitor DVI USB KVM Switch supports both digital
video (2048 x 1536) and analog video (1920 x 1200) for your
maximum convenience in adapting to your display
requirements. It is TMDS-compliant to support DDC2B
emulation and HDCP compliant for digital contents protection.
The 2 extra USB 2.0 hub ports are for sharing high-speed
USB 2.0 devices. However, to offer full driver support to some
advanced USB 2.0 gadgets that need their own drivers for full
function, it also provide a Device port with no emulation for
the direct signal pass-through required for these delicate
devices. Thus, you can connect it to the transceiver of your
wireless/Bluetooth keyboard/mouse to enable its full driver
and functional support.
In addition to the keyboard hotkey operation, it provides an
innovative and easy-to-use KVM Switcher Software (for
Windows/Mac) -- a small software client application to
facilitate your KVM switching operations such as PC selection
and hotkey sequence programming, autoscanning, autoscan
delay time programming, independent/simultaneous
audio&PC switching, etc. User can use either the original
keyboard hotkey or the KVM switcher client software to
facilitate KVM operation.
Out-of-the-box Installation
Take the KVM Switch out of the box and begin
installation….
Step 1. Power up you KVM Switch by connecting the external
power adapter to it.
Step 2. Connect the shared USB keyboard, mouse, two
monitors and the 7.1 channel speaker system and
microphone as well as other shared USB devices to
the KVM switch. If you use an advanced USB device
(such as wireless/Bluetooth mouse, etc) that needs
its own driver for full function, you can to connect it to
the Device port.
Step 3. Connect each of your computers to the KVM switch,
using the DVI-I video cable, USB (Type A-to-Type B)
cable and audio & Mic cables (see the pictures
below).

Video Cable (TypeA-to-TypeB)
If you need to connect your KVM switch to analog video display
card or analog display monitor, you have to use DVI-HDB adapters for
interface conversions. This KVM Switch supports digital video – 1920
x 1200 / analog video – 2048 x 1536
Step 4. (Now your KVM Switch should have been powered-
up….) Power up the connected computers one by
one. After your computers are powered up, the
keyboard and mouse will be recognized and now you
can begin operating the KVM switch.
And also you should verify the USB device on your Device Port
are fully functioning after installation of its driver on both connected
PCs
Easy Operation
There are three methods to control your KVM Switch for PC,
USB hub port as well as audio/mic channel selection: using
the front-panel push buttons, a hotkey sequence, or the
Switcher Software.
Front-panel buttons
The front-panel buttons let you have direct control over KVM
switch operation and channel switching. Simply press the PC
button for PC port switching (and if binding is enabled
between PC / USB hub port control / audio&mic switching,
they will be jointly selected at the same time). If you want to
enable the binding of PC / Hub port control / Audio&Mic
switching, use the hotkey sequences. See Quick Reference Sheet
Basic configuration (showing only LDV-DM702AUSK)
Keyboard hotkey
A keyboard hotkey sequence consists of at least three specific
keystrokes: See Quick Reference Sheet
Hotkey sequence = [ScrLk]
*
+ [ScrLk]
*
+ Command key(s)
* User-definable = SCROLL LOCK, CAPS, ESC, F12 or
NUM LOCK
Hotkey preceding sequence configuration: For users who want to
use a preceding sequence other than two consecutive Scroll Locks,
there is also one convenient way to configure it. (1)Hit ScrollLock +
ScrollLock + H, then two beeps will signal readiness for new
preceding sequence selection [or Press and hold down the last front-
panel button (Button 2) until you hear two beeps, then release the
button.] (2) Select and press the key you would like to use as your
preceding sequence (SCROLL LOCK, CAPS, ESC, F12 or NUM
LOCK keys are available for selection) and you’ll hear a beep for
selection confirmation. Now you can use the new preceding sequence
to execute your hotkey commands.
Each keystroke within a hotkey sequence should be pressed
within 2 seconds. Otherwise, the hotkey sequence will not be
validated.
For detailed Hotkey sequences and their corresponding functional
commands, please refer to the Quick reference sheet.
Switcher Software
The KVM switcher software provides Windows version and
Mac version. Before you can operate the KVM switch with the
Switcher Software, you have to install it to the connected
computers. Please refer to the following sections for details of
software installation and operation.
Install the Switcher Software
Note that the Switcher Software provides an alternative way for
KVM operation in addition to the original hardware hotkeys. Thus,
if you are satisfied with the hardware hotkeys, you don’t
necessarily have to install the software client.
Step 1. Insert the companion CD ROM into your CD drive,
and the Autorun screen will pop up (If the Autorun
feature has not been enabled on your computer. Just
find the Autorun.exe on the CDROM and double-click
it to start).
Step 2. Click the “Software Installation for Window” to start
installation. Follow the instructions to completion. If
the installation is complete, you will see a KVM
Switcher icon appear on the system tray of your
desktop. Right-click to evoke the operation menu and
double-click to evoke the configuration box. For Mac
User, you should find the Mac switcher software (with
a file extension of .pkg or .zip) and install it on your
Mac.
The Windows switcher software is recommended for use on
Windows 98 SE or later. And the Mac switcher Software is
recommended for use on Mac OS 10.4 [Tiger] and later.
Windows Mac OS
No live connection detected
Current active PC channel is on port 1
Current active PC channel is on port 2
The KVM Switcher Software supports the Windows operating
systems. For other OS platforms such as Linux, you can still use the
keyboard hotkey - ScrLk + ScrLK + (x), x = port number, to switch PC.
Some older computers with USB interface might need to
manually enable the USB option in the BIOS settings before you
can use any USB devices. If your USB interface does not work,
please check the USB option in the BIOS.
If you use Windows 95/98/SE or Mac OS and has not yet
installed a USB mouse on your computer, there might be an error
message telling you that mouse is not detected and prompting
you to decide whether to ignore the same message in the future,
and yet you will find there is no mouse movement to disable this
message….So it is suggested that you should installed your USB
mouse on your computer first, before connecting it to this KVM
Switch.
KVM Switcher Operation Reference

menu, then select whichever PC that is available for switching.
