The camgeet KVM switch offers three methods for switching between connected computers:

5.1. Front Panel Buttons

Press the numbered buttons (1-10) on the front panel of the KVM switch to directly select the corresponding PC. The LED indicator will show the active computer.

5.2. Wired Remote Control

Use the included wired remote control to switch between computers. The remote features numbered buttons (1-10) and a digital display indicating the currently active PC. This provides convenient switching from your desktop.

5.3. Njikwa RS232

For advanced users and automated environments, the KVM switch supports RS232 serial control. Connect an RS232 serial cable (not included) to the RS232 port on the KVM. Use a baud rate of 115200. You can send specific commands to switch between PCs:

6. EDID Simulation

The KVM switch features EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) simulation. This function ensures that when you switch between computers, the display's EDID information is maintained, preventing the operating system from detecting a display disconnection. This helps to keep your windows and icons in their original positions, avoiding screen rearrangement.

6.1. Enabling/Disabling EDID Emulation

To toggle the EDID emulation function, press and hold the switch button labeled "1" on the front panel for 3 seconds. The KVM will indicate whether the function is active or inactive.

The KVM switch is equipped with four USB 3.0 ports (one USB-C and three USB-A) on the front panel. These ports allow you to share various USB peripheral devices, such as keyboards, mice, printers, and USB flash drives, among all connected computers. The USB 3.0 standard provides ultra-fast data transfer rates of up to 5Gbps, significantly faster than USB 2.0, enabling quick file transfers and responsive peripheral performance.
