5. Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to connect your UGREEN DP 1.4 KVM Switch:
- Connect Display: Connect your monitor, TV, or projector to the DisplayPort OUT port on the KVM switch.
- Connect PC 1: Connect your first computer (PC or laptop) to the 1 IN ports on the KVM switch. This typically involves connecting a DisplayPort cable and a USB-C cable (or USB-A if using an adapter) from your PC to the KVM's corresponding input ports.
- Connect PC 2: Similarly, connect your second computer to the 2 IN ports on the KVM switch using DisplayPort and USB-C (or USB-A) cables.
- Connect Peripherals: Connect your keyboard, mouse, U-disk, printer, or hard drives to the USB-A (5Gbps) ports on the KVM switch.
- Connect Power: Connect the USB-C power cable and charger to the CONTROL port on the KVM switch to provide power.
- Desktop Controller (Optional): If desired, connect the desktop controller to the dedicated control port for remote switching.
Note: The DisplayPort and USB-C (or USB-A) ports for each PC input must be connected simultaneously for the KVM functionality (keyboard, mouse, and display switching) to work correctly.

Switching Between Computers
The UGREEN DP 1.4 KVM Switch offers two convenient ways to switch between your connected computers:
- Manual Switch Button: Press the button located on the top of the KVM switch to toggle between PC 1 and PC 2.
- Desktop Controller: Use the external desktop controller (if connected) to switch between computers. This provides a more accessible switching option if the KVM switch is out of reach.
Two Ways to Switch: Manual Button and Desktop Controller
Plug and Play Compatibility
The KVM switch is designed for plug-and-play operation with most common operating systems, including Windows 7/8/10/11, Linux, and macOS. No additional driver installation is typically required.

7. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the surface of the device. Avoid using liquid cleaners or aerosols.
- Storage: Store the KVM switch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Handling: Handle the device with care to prevent physical damage. Avoid dropping or subjecting it to strong impacts.
- Cable Management: Ensure cables are neatly organized and not excessively bent or strained to prevent damage to the ports or cables themselves.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your KVM switch, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- No Display Output:
- Ensure all DisplayPort cables are securely connected to both the KVM switch and your computers/monitor.
- Verify that the KVM switch is powered on and receiving adequate power via the USB-C power port.
- Check if your monitor is set to the correct input source (DisplayPort).
- Test with different DisplayPort cables if possible.
- Keyboard/Mouse Not Responding:
- Ensure the USB-C (or USB-A) cables from both PCs are connected to the KVM switch, in addition to the DisplayPort cables. Both video and USB data connections are required for KVM functionality.
- Verify that your keyboard and mouse are connected to the correct USB-A ports on the KVM switch.
- Try connecting the keyboard/mouse directly to the computer to confirm they are functional.
- Restart the KVM switch and the connected computers.
- Resolution Issues (e.g., not 8K@60Hz):
- Ensure your display, graphics card, and DisplayPort cables all support 8K@60Hz (DisplayPort 1.4).
- Check your computer's display settings to ensure the desired resolution and refresh rate are selected.
- The KVM's EDID feature automatically recognizes screen resolution, but compatibility issues can arise with older hardware or non-standard configurations.
- Peripherals (Printer, U-Disk) Not Detected:
- Ensure the peripheral is properly connected to one of the USB-A ports on the KVM switch.
- Verify that the active computer has the necessary drivers installed for the peripheral.
- Try connecting the peripheral directly to the computer to confirm functionality.
- G-Sync/MST Compatibility: The KVM switch's compatibility with advanced features like NVIDIA G-Sync or DisplayPort MST (Multi-Stream Transport) for daisy-chaining monitors depends heavily on the specific graphics card, monitor, and operating system drivers. UGREEN cannot guarantee full compatibility with all such proprietary or complex setups.
9. User Tips
- For optimal performance and to ensure all KVM features (keyboard, mouse, display) function correctly, always connect both the DisplayPort cable and the USB-C (or USB-A) cable from each PC to the KVM switch.
- If you experience any flickering or instability at high resolutions, ensure you are using high-quality DisplayPort 1.4 certified cables.
- Consider using the desktop controller for quick switching, especially if your KVM switch is placed in a less accessible location.
