OVERVIEW D2H-4p Duo is a dedicated multi-platform KVM switch capable of managing four 4K computers through a single, central workstation. Built with ultra-HD ready HDMI outputs, the D2H-4p Duo offers full video emulation directly from the device. Up until now, DisplayPort switches lost emulated picture when disconnected from monitors, leading to confusion and disorganization upon reconnecting.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION 1. Ensure that power is disconnected from D2H-4P Duo. 2. Connect the DisplayPort cables, Audio and USB cables (male type-A to male type-B ) from the computers to the respective ports on the D2H-4P Duo. 3. Optionally connect RS-232 for control functions. 4. Connect the USB keyboard and mouse to the two USB ports on the right . Note: The 2 USB ports on the right are dedicated for keyboard and mouse with full emulation.
FRONT PANEL CONTROL To switch ports using the front panel, press the M1 or M2 button to navigate between connected computers. EDID learning is also done through the front panel buttons by pressing both buttons simultaneously. Figure 6-1 HOTKEY COMMANDS The Hotkey command is a keyboard sequence used to trigger an action on the D2H-4P Duo through the use of the keyboard connected on the USB port of the D2H-4P Duo.
RS-232 CONTROL Controlling the D2H-4P Duo via RS-232 requires an RS-232 card installed on your computer or a USB to RS-232 adapter. Check the D2H-4P Duo and your Computer to determine if you need a male to male or a male to female cable and how long it needs to be. The D2H-4P Duo requires a straight through cable. You can use a Null Modem Adapter to convert a crossed cable to a straight through cable. An example of a straight through cable pin-out is shown in Figure 7-1.
