Setup Guide

Follow these steps to properly set up your ANXQQ KVM Switch:

1. Power Off Devices: Ensure all computers and monitors are powered off before making any connections.
2. Connect Monitors to KVM:
   • Connect your three monitors to the "Monitor A", "Monitor B", and "Monitor C" output ports on the KVM switch. Ensure you use the correct HDMI and DisplayPort cables for each monitor as required.
3. Connect Computers to KVM: For each computer (PC1, PC2, PC3):
   • Connect the HDMI output of your computer to the corresponding HDMI input (e.g., "INPUT A 1" for PC1) on the KVM switch.
   • Connect the two DisplayPort outputs of your computer to the corresponding DisplayPort inputs (e.g., "INPUT B 1" and "INPUT C 1" for PC1) on the KVM switch.
   • Connect one of the included USB 3.0 cables from a USB 3.0 port on your computer to the corresponding USB 3.0 input (e.g., "USB 3.0 INPUT A 1" for PC1) on the KVM switch. This connection is crucial for keyboard, mouse, and other USB peripheral sharing.

   Note: Each computer requires 1 HDMI, 2 DisplayPort, and 1 USB 3.0 connection to the KVM switch. If your computer lacks any of these ports, a reliable adapter or docking station may be required.
4. Connect Peripherals: Connect your keyboard, mouse, and any other USB 3.0/2.0 peripherals (e.g., printer, U disk) to the USB 3.0 Type-A ports on the front panel of the KVM switch.
5. Connect Wired Remote (Optional): Plug the wired remote control into the dedicated "Wired Remote" port on the front of the KVM switch.
6. Connect Power Adapter: Plug the DC 12V power adapter into the "DC/12V" port on the KVM switch, then plug the adapter into a power outlet.
7. Power On: Power on the KVM switch using the ON/OFF switch, then power on your monitors and computers.

Important Note: Before setting up, ensure your computers and graphics cards support multi-screen output (three independent displays). This KVM switch does not have EDID emulation, meaning displays may briefly disconnect when switching between computers.

Operating Instructions

Switching Between Computers

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

• Front Panel Button Switch:

  Press the corresponding "PC1", "PC2", or "PC3" button on the front panel of the KVM switch to select the desired computer. The LED indicator above the button will illuminate (Blue for PC1, Green for PC2, Red for PC3) to show the active computer.

• Wired Remote Control:

  Use the included wired remote control to switch between computers. Press the button corresponding to the desired PC (1, 2, or 3) on the remote. This allows for flexible placement of the KVM switch while keeping control within reach.

Display Modes

The KVM switch supports various display configurations depending on your computer's capabilities. You can typically choose between Mirror Mode and Extended Mode:

• Mirror Mode: All three monitors display the same content. This is often used for presentations or duplicating a single display across multiple screens.
• Extended Mode: Each monitor acts as an independent display, extending your desktop across all three screens. This is ideal for multitasking and increasing workspace.

To switch between display modes on Windows, press Windows Key + P and select your preferred display option.
