About drivers
You don’t need to install any drivers for this KVM switch, as the keyboard and mouse
use generic USB drivers that are already installed on any operating system that
supports USB technology.

Using hotkey commands
If you’re using a computer that is running a version of Windows® or Linux®, you can use
hotkey commands to operate the KVM switch. All hotkey commands begin by pressing
the Left Ctrl key twice and then pressing one or two additional keys.
The KVM switch emits a high-pitched beep when you enter a correct command and a
low-pitched beep when you enter an incorrect command. Incorrect hotkey commands
aren’t sent to the computer.
To use hotkey commands, the keyboard you’re using needs to be connected to the
Console USB keyboard port.
Note: Hotkey commands aren’t supported in the Mac OS operating system.
