KVM (or USB switch) Suggestion

@nbache

but have you connected the KVM to the USB-port dedicated for the keyboard?

and can you use your keyboard in CFE?

Can you share the connections schematic again please?

If I read your posts correctly, your connections looks like this:

- Keyboard connected to the Mouse port of the CS1784A,
- Mouse connecte to the keyboard port of the CS1784A
- USB Kable (port xx) from the CS1784A to a USB port of the X1000 which is not the dedicated Keyboard port.

am I right?

On the X1000, the USB part of the cable to the KVM switch is in the lower port of the first column (i.e the one closest to the sound sockets).

I'm not sure what the USB port dedicated for the keyboard is on the X1000, isn't that just one of two in the first column? There are (IIRC) no markings of where to connect the keyboard on the X1000 backplate.

The other end of the cable is connected to port 4 of the KVM (USB, DVI DL, and sound play/rec).

My mouse (receiver) is in the keyboard socket on the back of the KVM.

My keyboard is in the USB2.0 socket below the mouse and keyboard sockets on the back of the KVM.

And yes, I can use the keyboard in CFE.

Best regards,

Niels
