4. Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to properly set up your KVM switch:

1. Power Connection: Insert the DC/12V power adapter into the 'DC12V' port on the KVM switch.
2. Monitor Output Connection: Connect your three monitors to the KVM switch's output ports. Use one HDMI cable for 'HDMI OUT A' and two DisplayPort cables for 'DP OUT B' and 'DP OUT C'.
3. Computer Input Connection (Per PC): For each computer (PC1, PC2, PC3, PC4) you wish to connect, ensure it has the necessary video outputs (1x HDMI, 2x DisplayPort) and a USB 3.0 port. Connect the following cables from each computer to the corresponding input ports on the KVM switch:
   • 1x HDMI cable to 'HDMI IN [PC Number]A'
   • 2x DisplayPort cables to 'DP IN [PC Number]B' and 'DP IN [PC Number]C'
   • 1x USB 3.0 A-B cable (included) to 'USB IN [PC Number]'

   Important: Ensure that all cables for a single PC (HDMI IN, DP IN, and USB IN) are connected to the corresponding input group (e.g., PC1's HDMI IN 1A, DP IN 1B, DP IN 1C, and USB IN 1). Mixed insertion is not supported and will prevent proper functionality.
4. Peripheral Connection: Insert your keyboard and mouse into the 'USB1' and 'USB2' ports on the KVM switch. You can use the 'USB3' port for other USB 3.0 devices like a printer, scanner, or USB hub.
5. Audio Connection (Optional): If needed, connect your microphone to the microphone port and your speakers/earphones to the audio output port on the KVM switch.

Note: HDMI and DisplayPort cables are not included and must be purchased separately. Ensure your computers can support triple display output before purchasing and setting up the KVM switch. You can test this by connecting your PC directly to three monitors without the KVM switch.

5. Operating Instructions

The Yeemie Pro KVM Switch offers two convenient methods for switching between connected computers:

5.1. Panel Button Switching

Press the 'SWITCH' buttons located on the front panel of the KVM switch. Each button corresponds to a specific PC input (PC1, PC2, PC3, PC4). Pressing the button will instantly switch the connected monitors, keyboard, mouse, and other USB devices to the selected computer. An LED indicator will illuminate to show which computer is currently active.

5.2. Wired Remote Control Switching

Connect the included wired remote control to the 'SWITCH' port on the KVM switch. Place the remote on your desktop for easy access. Press the button on the wired remote to cycle through the connected computers. This method is ideal for maintaining a clean and uncluttered workspace, allowing you to switch computers without reaching for the KVM unit itself.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your KVM switch, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Video Output or Only One Monitor Working:
  • Ensure all video cables (1x HDMI, 2x DisplayPort) and the USB 3.0 cable for each PC are correctly and fully connected to their corresponding input group on the KVM switch. Mixed connections will prevent proper display.
  • Verify that your computer's graphics card and operating system are configured to support triple display output. Test by connecting your PC directly to three monitors.
  • Check that all cables are high-quality and rated for the desired resolution (e.g., 8K or 4K). Poor quality or damaged cables can cause signal issues.
• USB Devices (Keyboard/Mouse/Printer) Not Recognized:
  • Confirm that the USB 3.0 A-B cable from the computer to the KVM switch is securely connected to the correct 'USB IN' port for the active PC.
  • Ensure the KVM switch is receiving adequate power from the included power adapter.
  • Try connecting the USB device directly to the computer to confirm it functions independently of the KVM switch.
• Resolution or Refresh Rate Issues:
  • The final resolution and refresh rate depend on your graphics card, monitors, and the quality of your cables. Ensure all components support the desired specifications.
  • If your desktop or laptop lacks the required 1x HDMI + 2x DisplayPort outputs, you may need a reliable adapter or a USB-C docking station. Ensure any adapters are 'active' if converting signal types.
• Slow Switching Time:
  • While the switch is designed for fast transitions, some delays can occur depending on the connected systems and monitor initialization. Ensure all connections are stable.
