Entretien

Pour garantir la longévité et les performances optimales de votre commutateur KVM, suivez ces consignes de maintenance :

• Nettoyage: Utilisez un chiffon doux et sec pour nettoyer l'extérieur de l'appareil. Évitez d'utiliser des nettoyants liquides ou des aérosols, qui pourraient endommager l'appareil.
• Ventilation: Veillez à placer le commutateur KVM dans un endroit bien ventilé afin d'éviter toute surchauffe. Ne bloquez aucune ouverture de ventilation.
• Gestion des câbles: Veillez à ce que les câbles soient bien rangés et exempts de nœuds ou de courbures excessives afin d'éviter les dommages et de garantir des connexions stables.
• Conditions environnementales : Évitez d'exposer l'appareil à des températures extrêmes, à l'humidité ou à la lumière directe du soleil.

Dépannage

Si vous rencontrez des problèmes avec votre commutateur KVM, consultez les problèmes et solutions courants suivants :

• Aucune sortie d'affichage :
  • Assurez-vous que tous les câbles HDMI sont correctement connectés à la fois au commutateur KVM et aux ordinateurs/moniteurs.
  • Vérifiez que le commutateur KVM est sous tension.
  • Check if the correct input source is selected on your monitor.
  • Essayez de redémarrer le commutateur KVM et les ordinateurs connectés.
  • Confirm that your HDMI cables support the desired resolution (e.g., 4K@60Hz).
• Clavier/souris ne répondent pas :
  • Ensure the USB 3.0 cables from the computers to the KVM switch are properly connected.
  • Verify that the keyboard and mouse are connected to the dedicated USB 3.0 ports on the KVM switch.
  • Essayez de connecter le clavier et la souris directement à l'ordinateur pour vérifier qu'ils fonctionnent.
  • Some specialized gaming keyboards/mice may require direct connection or specific drivers; try a standard keyboard/mouse first.
• Display Resolution/Refresh Rate Issues:
  • Ensure all connected devices (computers, monitor, HDMI cables) support the desired resolution and refresh rate (e.g., 4K@60Hz).
  • Adjust display settings on your computer to match the capabilities of your monitor and KVM switch.
• Délai de commutation :
  • A slight delay during switching is normal as the system re-establishes connections. Excessive delays might indicate a cable issue; try replacing HDMI or USB cables.
