Troubleshooting
If you are experiencing any difficulties, first make sure that all your cables are
connected to their proper ports and are firmly seated.
My SV221MICRA/SV221MICUSBA keeps switching between my computers.
The switch is likely in auto-scan mode. In auto-scan mode, the switch will toggle
between computers after a set interval and the LEDs will be flashing. To exit or
terminate Auto-scan mode, press any key on keyboard.
I can not switch between computers.
You are likely using the wrong hotkey combination. Review the chart on page 4 and
make sure you are using the Scroll Lock control key. Hotkey sequences must be
completed within 3 seconds to be valid.
