    • Connect the peripherals to be shared by the KVM to the Console Ports.
    • Connect each computer that needs access to shared peripherals to a specific Computer Ports section.
    • Make sure that every computer is connected to a separate Computer Port section.
    • The push buttons on the product’s front panel indicate which computer has current access to shared peripherals.
    • To switch peripherals between computers, press the appropriate push button on the product’s front panel.
    • Before installing an administrator may have a need to configure the KVM for CAC or DPP, and channel Illumination colorization. Consult your administrator for details

F1DN204KVM-UN-4 Model is shown

  1. Connect peripherals to the KVM Console Ports:
    • Keyboard & Mouse: Keyboard & Mouse: Connect a USB keyboard and mouse to the corresponding KVM console port. The keyboard and mouse connected lights (rear panel) will illuminate green. If the keyboard or mouse are not authorized, the lights will illuminate red.
    • Video: Connect the monitor cable to the KVM console video port. The EDID LEDs (rear panel) will operate as follows:
      • Off: no EDID
      • Flicker: EDID read in progress
      • On: EDID received
        Note: EDID is only read in the first few seconds of device boot. The secure switch does not support hot plug or swap of displays. In any swap of display(s) it is required to restart the KVM.
    • Audio peripherals: Connect headphones/speakers to the KVM console audio-out port.
    • Common Access Card (CAC/DPP) Configuration and Operation: Please refer to the relevant section.
  2. Connect peripherals to the KVM Computer (Host) Ports:
    • Computer keyboard & mouse connection: Connect each computer to the KVM keyboard & mouse computer port using a USB A to USB B cable. Connect the USB A end to the computer and the USB B end to KVM.
    • Computer Video connection: Connect each computer to the KVM computer video port using the corresponding video cable (DisplayPort/HDMI), if two video connections exist, make sure each PC video 1 is in the bottom connector.
    • Computer audio connection: Connect each computer to the KVM audio-in port using an audio cable. Connect one end of the cable to the computer’s audio-out port using the 1/8″ (3.5mm) stereo plug. Connect the other end of the audio cable to the KVM audio-in computer port.
      • Audio can be frozen on a channel (if equipped) and allow for the operator to hear the frozen channel audio when switched to another channel.
      • To freeze an audio channel press and hold the channel button to be frozen for 3 seconds. The audio freeze light will illuminate.
      • To unfreeze an audio channel press and hold any channel button for 3 seconds. The audio freeze light will extinguishbelkin-F1DN102KVM-UNN4-Secure-Desktop-KVM-Switch-fig (2)
  3. Common Access Card (CAC/DPP) Configuration and Operation (if equipped): CAC/DPP connection to the computer (If equipped) requires a separate USB cable connection and allows the user to specify whether there is a connected device required for that computer or not. This allows the CAC/ DPP port to be connected and controlled separately to the keyboard, mouse, video, and audio.

Step 1 – Installation:

  1. Using the appropriate USB cable, connect one end of the cable to the computer that requires CAC/DPP, and the other end to the CAC/DPP port on the KVM Switch that corresponds to the computer. Important Note: Do not connect the USB cable if CAC/DPP functionality is not needed for that computer.
  2. If only some of the computers use CAC/ DPP functionality, make sure that computer #1 is connected to the CAC/DPP device. If needed, switch channels/computer mapping to create this configuration.
  3. If CAC/DPP is connected it is automatically enabled.
  4. Once configured, the CAC/DPP connection will be switched only when required by the connected computer. When switching from a CAC-enabled port to a non-CAC-enabled port, CAC/DPP can be frozen on a channel (if equipped) and allow for the operator to utilize the peripheral connected to a channel when switched to another channel. To freeze CAC/DPP to a channel press the channel button to be frozen 3 times in succession. The CAC freeze light will illuminate. To unfreeze CAC/DPP to a channel press any channel button 3 times in succession. The CAC freeze light will extinguish.
  5. In case the connected USB device cannot be detected by the secure product, the CAC status LED will not illuminate when frozen. The USB device will be detected only if it is fully compliant with the appropriate USB standards and is included in the list of recognized USB devices defined by the administrator (see your administrator for details) when configuring CAC functionality, possible reasons for USB device not being detected:
    • Non-standard USB device
    • Failed USB Device
  6. If the device is detected but is not authorized, the device will be rejected for security reasons. This will be indicated by a flickering or non-green-lit CAC connection LED (back panel). Smart card readers and CACs are included in the authorized USB devices list as standard.
    • Power ON your system:
      • Power ON the monitor/s: Make sure that the monitor/s is/are turned ON prior to powering the KVM.
      • Power ON the system: Connect all peripherals and computers to the KVM prior to powering it up. Power ON the KVM by plugging it into the AC wall outlet. By default, after product power-up, the active channel will be computer #1, indicated by the applicable front panel push button LED lit.
    • Important Notes: Anti-Tamper System: This Switch is equipped with active anti-tamper triggers. Any attempt to open the enclosure will activate the antitamper triggers, render the unit inoperable and warranty will be void. If the unit’s enclosure appears disrupted or if all the port LEDs flash continuously, please call Belkin Technical Support at 800-282-2355.
    • Product Enclosure Warning Label and Tamper Evident Labels: Belkin Secure Switch uses product enclosure warning labels and holographic tamper evident labels to provide visual indications in case of enclosure intrusion attempt. If for any reason one of these seals is missing or appears disrupted, please avoid using the product and call Belkin Technical Support at 800-282-2355.
    • Power ON Self-Test Procedure: As the product powers up it performs a self-test procedure. In case of self-test failure for any reason, including jammed buttons, the product will be Inoperable, and self-test failure will be indicated by abnormal LED behavior. In the above-mentioned cases, please call Technical Support and avoid using the product. For further information please refer to the product administrator and setup guides. Please note: Belkin Secure KVMs cannot be upgraded, serviced or repaired.
