keyboards, mice, as well as USB peripheral devices such as printers, scanners, and more. Up to 127  
USB devices can be daisy chained from this KVMP switch. Sharing speakers and a microphone also  
offers extra value and convenience for the users.  
USB and KVM technology together makes cross-platform management easy. A single USB console can  
control a PC and a Mac workstation, and share peripherals and audio between the computers.  
We hope you’ll enjoy using your Miniview Dual View USB KVMP switch, yet another first-rate connectivity  
solution from IOGEAR

Overview  
The GCS1742/GCS1744 USB KVM Switch brings dual head video functionality to IOGEAR’s USB KVM  
switch technology. Now, two (GCS1742) or four (GCS1744) dual head computers can be accessed and  
controlled from a single console that consists of a USB keyboard, USB mouse, and two VGA, SVGA, or  
Multisync monitors.  
In addition, the GCS1742/1744 incorporates a two port USB hub that allows each of the computers to  
share any USB peripherals connected to the hub on a one-computer-at a time basis. Recognizing the  
importance of sound, the switches are also audio enabled. A single microphone can provide audio input  
to each of the computers, and you can listen to the audio output of each computer on a single set of  
speakers (on a one-at-a-time basis).  
The GCS1742/GCS1744 independent (asynchronous) switching feature allows independent switching of  
the KVM, USB hub, the second display channel, and audio focus. If you wish, you can give one  
computer the KVM console focus, another the USB hub focus, while a third has the audio focus.  
Setup is fast and easy; simply plug cables into their appropriate ports. There is no software to configure,  
no installation routines, and no incompatibility problems.

Installation  
Before you Begin  
1. Make sure that power to all the devices you will be connecting up have been turned off. You must  
unplug the power cords of any computers that have the Keyboard Power On function. Otherwise, the  
switch will receive power from the computer.  
2. Make sure that all devices on the installation are properly grounded.

Installation  
Cable Connection  
1. Plug your Console devices (USB keyboard, USB mouse, VGA monitors, microphone and speakers),  
into the switch’s Console Ports.  
Note: Only supports two-piece, powered speakers.  
2. Use the Port A KVM cable (the one with the USB connector) to connect any available CPU A port to  
the first VGA port and the USB port of the computer you are installing.  
3. Use the Port B KVM cable (the one with the microphone and speaker connectors) to connect the  
CPU B port to the second VGA port and the audio jacks of the computer you are installing.  
Note: Be sure that the Port B cable is in the same CPU port as the Port A cable (ex: if connecting to CPU1, then connect one cable to 1A  
port and the other to 1B port)  
4. Connect your USB peripherals to the USB ports located on the front and rear panels.  
5. If you choose to use external power, plug the power adapter cable into the switch’s Power Jack, then  
plug the power adapter into an AC power source.  
Note:The power adapter (optional) should be DC5V 2.6A with the inside positive and the outside negative:

Operation  
Hot Plugging  
The GCS1742/GCS1744 supports USB hot plugging – components can be removed and added back  
into the installation by unplugging their cables from the USB hub ports without the need to shut the unit  
down.  
Powering Off and Restarting  
If it becomes necessary to Power Off the KVM unit, before starting it back up you must do the following:  
1. Shut down all the computers that are attached to the switch.  
2. Unplug power adapter cable from the switch  
3. Wait 10 seconds, then plug the switch’s power adapter cable back in.  
4. After the switch is up, Power On the computers.  
NOTE: If the KVM switch has become unresponsive or shows erratic behavior, it is highly suggested that you unplug all cables from the  
KVM (all KVM cables and power cable) and leave the unit disconnected for 30 minutes. After this, plug all the KVM cables back and  
power ON the unit.

Operation  
Port ID Numbering  
Each CPU port on the GCS1742/GCS1744 switch is assigned a port number (1 or 2 for GCS1742; 1 to  
4 for GCS1744). The port numbers are marked on the rear panel of the switch.  
The Port ID of a computer is derived from the CPU port number it is connected to. For example, a  
computer connected to CPU port 2 has a Port ID of 2.  
The Port ID is used to specify which computer gets the KVM USB peripheral, and audio focus with the  
Hotkey port selection method.  
Port Switching  
There are two ways to access the computers in your KVM setup:  
• Manual switching – pressing the push-buttons on the unit’s front panel  
• Hotkey switching – entering commands from the keyboard

The Firmware Upgrade Utility  
The Windows-based Firmware Upgrade Utility (FWUpgrade.exe) provides a smooth, automated  
process for upgrading the KVM switch’s firmware. To run the firmware, you will need to use a windows  
based PC with an available serial port.  
The Utility comes as part of a Firmware Upgrade Package that is specific for each device. New  
firmware upgrade packages are posted on our web site as new firmware revisions become available.  
Check the web site regularly to find the latest packages and information relating to them:  
Before You Begin  
To prepare for the firmware upgrade, do the following:  
1.  
From a computer that is not part of your KVM installation, go to the IOGEAR support site and select  
the product part number (GCS1742 or GCS1744) to get a list of available Firmware Upgrade  
Packages.  
Choose the Firmware Upgrade Package you want to install (usually the most recent), and download  
it to your computer.  
2.  
3.  
Use the Firmware Upgrade Cable provided with this unit, to connect to a serial port on your  
computer to the Firmware Upgrade Port of your switch.

5.  
Make sure the power is plugged into the KVM.  
Once the power is plugged in and the switch is set  
to upgrade, all of the amber lights on the KVM will  
flash once per second. Now you are ready to run  
the firmware upgrade utility.
