The Belkin OmniView SOHO Series KVM Switch allows you to control
up to four computers, depending on the model, with one keyboard,
monitor, and mouse. All SOHO Series KVM Switches support PS/2 input
devices (keyboard and mouse) as well as VGA, SVGA, XGA, and XGA-
II video.
The OmniView SOHO Series KVM Switch you have purchased
supports either PS/2 output for computers (F1DS102P or F1DS104P),
or both PS/2 and USB output for both USB and PS/2 computers
(F1DS102T or F1DS104T). Consult the packaging notation to
ascertain which KVM you have purchased, and consult your
computer manufacturer’s literature if you are not sure about which
OmniView SOHO Series KVM product you need.
Microphone/Audio Support:
The OmniView SOHO Series has been designed with built-in
microphone and speaker jacks to support the growth of multimedia
use in small-office and home-office environments. This feature
eliminates the need to disconnect and reconnect these devices when
switching between computers and reduces the clutter on your desktop
with fewer speakers.
Features Overview
Hot Keys:
Hot keys allow you to select ports using designated key commands.
Control up to four computers, depending on the model, using a simple
hot key sequence on your keyboard. Full hot key instructions for usage
and commands are located in this manual, on pages 21 and 22.
Front-Panel Push Button:
Push buttons conveniently located on the front face of
the OmniView SOHO Series KVM Switch allow for simple, manual
port selection.
Cable Management:
The designed enclosure offers built-in cable management to contain
connected cables. Once the cables have been connected and the
shroud slid into place, the cables are conveniently maintained
through the back opening.
AutoScan:
The AutoScan feature allows you to automatically scan and monitor
the activities of all operating computers connected to your KVM
Switch one by one. AutoScan usage instructions are located in this
manual, on page 22.
LED Display:
An LED display is added to the face of the OmniView SOHO Series
KVM Switch for easy status monitoring. A lit LED indicates which
computer the console has control of. The corresponding port selection
button is located next to the LED. When pushed, the LED should light
next to the port button selected.
Video Resolution:
With a 400MHz bandwidth, the OmniView SOHO Series
KVM Switch is able to support video resolutions of up to
2048x1536@85Hz. To preserve signal integrity at high
resolutions, 75-Ohm coaxial VGA cabling is required.

The compact size of the OmniView SOHO Series KVM Switch makes
it perfect for desktop placement. Consider the following when
deciding where to place the KVM Switch: whether or not you intend
to use the manual push buttons for selecting ports; the length of the
cables attached to your keyboard, mouse, and monitor; the location
of your CPUs from your console; and the length of the cables you use
to connect your computers to the KVM.

Cable Distance Requirements:For PS/2 computers: VGA signals are
best retained when transmitted up to 25 feet (7.5m). Beyond 25 feet
(7.5m), probability of video degradation increases with an increase in
distance. For this reason, your PS/2 computer should be placed within
25 feet (7.5m) of the KVM Switch.

powered on simultaneously. The SOHO Series KVM Switch emulates
a mouse and keyboard on each port and allows your computer to
boot normally.
Your Belkin SOHO Series KVM Switch should now be ready for use.
You can select which computer to operate by either the push-button
Selector Button located on the front panel of the SOHO Series KVM
Switch or through keyboard hot key commands. Note that it will take
1–2 seconds for the video to display after switching. This is due to the
refresh of the video signal. There is also re-synchronization of the
mouse and keyboard signal that takes place. This is normal operation
and ensures that proper synchronization is established.
Selecting a Computer Using Front-Panel Selector Buttons
You can directly select which computer you wish to control by
pressing the corresponding push button next to the appropriate port.
The LED will be lit to indicate that the port is currently selected.

within two seconds. You will hear a beep for confirmation. Then you
can press the [UP], [DOWN] arrow keys to switch between ports.
