Frequently Asked Questions - DKVM2K D-LINK

How to install the DKVM-2K?

Turn off all computers. Connect the monitor's VGA cable to the console port of the DKVM-2K. Connect the integrated cables (VGA, keyboard, mouse) to the corresponding ports on each computer. Turn on the computers after connection. Use the front button or the key combination Scroll Lock + Scroll Lock + 1/2 to switch.

What to do if the keyboard does not work?

Check that the keyboard is plugged into the PS/2 keyboard port of the DKVM-2K (not the mouse port). Test the keyboard directly on the computer. Make sure the keyboard PS/2 IRQ is enabled in the BIOS. Try another keyboard.

What to do if the mouse does not work?

Check that the mouse is plugged into the PS/2 mouse port of the DKVM-2K. Test it directly on the computer. Check the mouse IRQ in the BIOS. Try another mouse. If the mouse moves unpredictably, turn off and restart the computer.

How to switch between computers?

Press the front button of the DKVM-2K, or use keyboard shortcuts: press Scroll Lock twice to enter command mode (a beep sounds), then type 1 for PC1, 2 for PC2, or S for AutoScan mode. Press Esc to exit command mode.

What to do if the image is not clear?

Check that all video cables are properly connected. Reduce the screen resolution and refresh rate. Use a shorter VGA cable if possible.

AutoScan mode not working?

Make sure you are in command mode (double press of Scroll Lock). Then type S to start automatic scanning every 10 seconds. To stop, press Esc.

Can I use a wireless mouse?

Yes, but it is recommended to use generic PS/2 mouse drivers. Wireless mice may use PS/2 protocol extensions not supported by the DKVM-2K. If problems occur, try a standard PS/2 mouse.

How to reset the switch?

Disconnect the mouse from the DKVM-2K for about 3 seconds, then reconnect it. You can also turn computers off and back on to reset the connection.

Is the USB/PS/2 converter necessary?

The included USB/PS/2 converter allows connecting USB keyboards or mice to the PS/2 ports of the DKVM-2K. Use it if your keyboard or mouse has a USB connection.

Troubleshooting Tips

Keyboard

If your keyboard is not functional, not detected, or there is a keyboard error on boot-up, check the following:

• Make sure that the keyboard is properly connected to the computer and to the DKVM-2K. Check that the keyboard is plugged into the correct PS/2 keyboard port and not the PS/2 mouse port.
• Verify that the keyboard works when plugged into the computer directly. You will have to shut down your computer first to do this.
• Read your motherboard documentation and make sure that the PS/2 keyboard's IRQ is enabled. This can be set for most computers in the BIOS setup.
• Try using a different keyboard.

Mouse

If your mouse is not functional, not detected, or there is a mouse error on boot-up, check the following:

• Make sure that the mouse is properly connected to the computer and to the DKVM-2K. Check that mouse is plugged into the correct PS/2 mouse port and not the PS/2 keyboard port.
• Verify that the mouse works when plugged into the computer directly. You will have to shut down your computer first to do this.
• Read your motherboard documentation and make sure that the PS/2 mouse's IRQ is enabled. This can be set for most computers in the BIOS setup.
  Try using a different mouse.
• If mouse movement is random when switching between computers, try shutting down your computer and rebooting.
• Verify that your computers do not have more than one mouse driver installed (check your config.sys and autoexec.bat files for Windows) and that you are using the latest mouse driver.
• If a special mouse is used such as a cordless or scrolling mouse, make sure you use generic PS/2 mouse drivers. A non-standard PS/2 mouse may have extensions on the PS/2 protocol that are not supported by the DKVM-2K.
• Do not move the mouse or press any mouse buttons when switching from one PC to another.
• Try resetting the mouse by unplugging it from the DKVM-2K for about 3 seconds and reconnecting.
