Instruction Manual  
Installation  
PC BIOS Notice: The following BIOS setup changes are necessary for PC  
users but are not required for Mac users:  
1) In STANDARD CMOS, set HALT ON ERROR to ALL BUT KEYBOARD.  
2) In PNP AND PCI SETUP, set PNP OS INSTALLED to YES and set the USB  
IRQ to ENABLED.  
Please note: SV431USBAE is capable of switching between computers while  
maintaining USB mouse and keyboard control. If you plan to share other  
peripherals such as a CCD camera, printer or scanner, you must shut down the  
corresponding driver on the computer from which KVM control is being  
switched.  
Because port switching is equivalent to unplugging the USB cable from one  
computer and plugging it in on another, some USB drivers continuously check  
attached USB peripherals and do not accept plug and play functionality.  
Console Connection  
Before installation, please ensure that all devices and computers to be connected to the  
KVM Switch have been turned off.  
1) Connect the monitor that will be used to the Console VGA port on the rear panel of  
SV431USBAE.  
2) Connect a USB keyboard and a USB mouse to any two of the Console USB ports as  
shown below:
