OVERVIEW  
The PRO2s allow you to control up to a maximum of 256 computers with one  
keyboard, monitor, and mouse. They support PS/2 input devices (keyboard  
and mouse) as well as VGA, SVGA, XGA, and XGA-2 video.  
They support both PS/2 and USB output. This enables cross-platform control  
over PCs and USB-based computers including USB Sun workstations and  
®
Mac computers.  
Feature Overview  
Hot Keys:  
Hot key functionality allows you to select a desired port using designated key  
commands. By using a simple hot key sequence on your keyboard, selecting  
one computer from as many as 256 computers is instantaneous. For a listing  
of complete hot key instructions and commands, see pages 17-19.  
AutoScan:  
The AutoScan feature allows you to set your PRO2 to scan and monitor the  
activities of all operating computers connected to the switch—one by one.  
The time interval allotted for each computer can be defined or adjusted  
through the On-Screen Display (OSD) menu. For complete instructions on  
AutoScan usage, please refer to page 18.  
Video Resolution:  
Through a 400MHz bandwidth, the PRO2s support video resolutions of up to  
2048x1536@85Hz. To preserve signal integrity at these higher resolutions,  
your PRO2 requires 75-Ohm coaxial VGA cabling.  
Flash Upgrade:  
Flash upgradeable firmware allows you to install the latest firmware for your  
PRO2. This enables your PRO2 to maintain consistent compatibility with the  
latest devices and computers. Firmware upgrades are free for the life of your  
PRO2. Refer to the enclosed flash upgrade instruction document or visit us  
at belkin.com for complete upgrade information and support.  
On-Screen Display (OSD):  
The OSD feature simplifies server management by allowing you to assign  
individual names to each connected server throughout the system. It provides  
a visual means of switching between computers and setting the time interval  
for the AutoScan function.

OVERVIEW  
Front-Panel Push Button:  
Direct-access port selectors, located conveniently on the front panel of the  
PRO2, allow for simple, manual port-selection. Each button controls a port.  
LED Display:  
An LED display on the face of the PRO2 serves as a status monitor. An LED  
next to each direct-access port selector illuminates to indicate that the console  
currently controls the corresponding computer. As a port selector is pushed,  
the LED next to it will light up. A flashing port LED indicates that there is no  
computer connected to that port.  
Seven-Segment LED Display:  
When daisy-chaining multiple PRO2s together, the seven-segment LED display  
serves as a quick indicator of the selected BANK.  
Equipment Requirements  
Cables:  
To connect to the PRO2, each PS/2 computer requires one VGA cable, one  
PS/2 keyboard cable, and one PS/2 mouse cable. Keyboard and mouse cables  
must have PS/2 male-to-PS/2 male connectors. Each USB computer requires  
one VGA cable and one USB A-to-B cable.  
Video resolution support of up to 2048x1536@85Hz requires use of a  
75-Ohm coaxial VGA cable to preserve signal integrity. VGA cables must  
have HDDB15 female-to-HDDB15 male connectors.  
Belkin highly recommends that you use OmniView All-In-One PRO Series  
Plus or Gold Series Cables. These cables offer the highest quality possible to  
ensure optimal data transmission. All-In-One Cables are molded together for  
a clean and organized setup; are double-shielded to reduce EMI/RFI  
interference; have strain-relief construction for added durability; come with a  
ferrite bead for noise immunity; and include PC99 color-coded connectors for  
easy identification and connection. The PRO Series Plus Cables include an  
industry-standard, 14-pin, coaxial VGA cable and nickel-plated connectors  
for high-resolution applications. The Gold Series Cables have a custom,  
15-pin, coaxial VGA cable and gold-plated connectors for superior clarity,  
connectivity, and error-free data transmission. OmniView Cables are

INSTALLATION  
Pre-Configuration  
Where to Place the PRO2:  
The enclosure of the PRO2 is designed for standalone or rack-mount  
configuration. The 8- and 16-port PRO2s are natively rack-mountable in  
standard 19-inch server racks. Rack-mount hardware is included with these  
switches for a study rack installation. An optional rack-mount kit (F1D005) is  
available for use with the 4-Port PRO2.  
Consider the following when deciding where to place the PRO2:  
• whether or not you intend to use the direct-access port selectors;  
• the lengths of the cables attached to your keyboard, monitor, and mouse;  
• the location of your CPUs in relation to your console;  
• and the lengths of the cables you use to connect your computers to the PRO2.  
Cable Distance Requirements:  
For PS/2 computers:  
VGA signals transmit best up to 25 feet. Beyond that length, the  
probability of video degradation increases. For this reason, we recommend  
that the length of the cables between the PRO2 and the connected computers  
does not exceed 25 feet.  
Note:  
If you need your console to reside further than 25 feet from the PRO2, we  
recommend using the Belkin CAT5 Extender (F1D084) with a standard CAT5  
UPT cable. By using this device, you may increase the distance between  
your PRO2 and your keyboard, mouse, and monitor by as much as 500 feet  
without risking signal degradation.  
For USB computers:  
USB signals can be transmitted up to 15 feet between the PRO2 and the CPU.  
Beyond 15 feet, the probability of signal failure is likely, and this may cause  
the device to fail.  
Cautions and Warnings:  
Avoid placing cables near fluorescent lights, air conditioning equipment, or  
machines that create electrical noise (e.g., vacuum cleaners).

INSTALLATION  
Step-by-Step Installation Guide  
Cautions and Warnings:  
Before attempting to connect anything to the PRO2 or your computer(s),  
please ensure that everything is powered off. Plugging and unplugging cables  
while computer(s) are powered on may cause irreversible damage to the  
computer(s) and/or the PRO2(s). Belkin Components is not responsible for  
damage caused in this way.  
Installing the PRO2 into a Server Rack:  
Bracket Installation (F1DA108T and F1DA116T only)  
Eight- or 16-Port PRO2s include adjustable mounting brackets ideal for  
installation in 19-inch racks. The mounting brackets feature three adjustment  
positions to allow the faceplate of the PRO2 to mount flush to your rack-mounted  
servers, or to the rack. Please follow these simple steps to achieve the desired  
adjustment. The 4-Port PRO2 requires an optional mounting kit (F1D005).  
1. Remove the adjustable brackets from the box. (The adjustable brackets  
allow you to set the PRO2’s face flush with the ends of the rails or to  
extend the PRO2 past the front of the rails).  
2. Determine how far you would like the PRO2 to protrude from the rack.  
Select a bracket-hole scheme.  
3. Attach the bracket to the side of your PRO2 using the Phillips screws  
provided. (Refer to diagram above).  
4. Mount the PRO2 to the rack rail assembly.  
Note: If this PRO2 will be daisy-chained to another PRO2, set the BANK  
address prior to installing on a rack. Refer to the section in this user manual  
labeled “Connecting Multiple PRO2s (Daisy-Chaining).

NOTE: We recommend you attach the KVM cable directly to a free USB port  
on your computer.  
Repeat steps 1 and 2 above for each additional USB computer you wish  
to connect.  
Connecting Multiple PRO2s (Daisy-Chaining)  
You can daisy-chain up to 16 PRO2s together, giving a server administrator  
control over a maximum of 256 computers. When daisy-chained together,  
each unit is referred to as a "BANK" and assigned an address. The Console  
keyboard, mouse, and monitor connects to BANK 00 and is referred to as the  
"Master" switch. BANKs 01 through 15 are referred to as "Slave" switches.  
Note: A daisy-chain cable (F1D108-CBL) is required to daisy-chain each  
PRO2 and is available through your Belkin reseller or online at belkin.com.  
All PRO2s feature a “BANK DIP” switch. The BANK DIP switch is used for proper  
identification and use of PRO2s in a single-unit or daisy-chain configuration.  
For a single-unit configuration, set the BANK DIP switch on the PRO2 to the  
“Master” (BANK address 00) setting. This is the factory default setting.  
For multi-unit configuration, the BANK DIP switch on the Master unit must  
be set to “BANK address 00”. Slave units must be set to a unique BANK  
address (from 01 through 15). Refer to the chart below for BANK DIP  
switch settings.

USING YOUR PRO2  
Powering up the Systems  
Once all cables have been connected, power up the computers that are  
attached to the PRO2. All computers can be powered on simultaneously. The  
PRO2 emulates both a mouse and keyboard on each port and allows your  
computer to boot normally.  
The computer connected to port “1” will be displayed on the monitor. Check  
to see that the keyboard, monitor, and mouse are working normally. Proceed  
to do this with all occupied ports to verify that all computers are connected  
and responding correctly. If you encounter an error, check your cable  
connections for that computer and reboot. If the problem persists, please  
refer to the Troubleshooting section in this manual.  
Using Your PRO2:  
Now that you have connected your Console and computers to your PRO2,  
it is ready for use.  
Select connected computers by either the direct-access port selectors, located on  
the front panel of the PRO2, using the On-Screen Display, or by using hot key  
commands through the Console keyboard. It takes approximately 1-2 seconds for  
the video signal to refresh after switching computers. Re-synchronization of the  
mouse and keyboard signals also occurs. This is normal operation and ensures  
that proper synchronization is established between the Console and the con-  
nected computers.

My computer does not boot when connected to the PRO2 but works fine  
when I connect the keyboard, video, and mouse directly to the computer.  
• Make sure that the keyboard and mouse cables are connected tightly  
between the PRO2 and the computer.  
• Check that the keyboard and mouse cables are not crossed.  
Video  
I am getting ghosting, shadowing, or fuzzy images on my monitor.  
• Check that all video cables are inserted properly.  
• Check that the monitor you are using supports the resolution and  
refresh-rate setting on your computer.  
• Check that the graphics card you are using supports the resolution and  
refresh-rate setting on your computer.  
• Connect the monitor directly into the computer you are having trouble  
with to see if the problem still appears.  
I am getting a black screen on my monitor.  
• Check that all video cables are inserted properly.  
• If you are not using a power adapter, check that the keyboard cable is  
connected and inserted properly between the computer and PRO2 for the  
appropriate port.  
• If you are using the PRO2 only for video switching and have no keyboard  
and mouse connection between the PRO2 and PC, you will need to

TROUBLESHOOTING  
Keyboard  
The computer does not detect a keyboard and I get a keyboard error  
reported at boot up.  
• Check that the keyboard cable between the PRO2 and the computer is  
completely connected. Tighten any loose connections.  
• Try using a different keyboard.  
• Try connecting the computer to a different port.  
• If you are using the keyboard software that was included with your keyboard,  
uninstall it and then reinstall the standard Microsoft keyboard driver.  
Mouse  
The mouse is lost when I switch to a different port.  
• Check that the mouse you are using is connected properly to the Console of  
the PRO2.  
• If you are using a mouse driver that was included with your mouse,  
uninstall it and install the standard Microsoft mouse driver.  
• Disconnect and reconnect the mouse cable attached to the channel  
with which you are experiencing problems to re-synchronize the mouse  
connection.  
• Make sure the mouse works when directly plugged into the computer.  
• If the computer is coming out of standby mode, allow up to one minute to  
regain mouse function.  
• De-activate power-management schemes on the PC with which you are  
experiencing problems.  
• Try a different mouse.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
The mouse is not detected at boot-up.  
• Check the cables and make sure that they are inserted correctly.  
The computer boots up, but the mouse does not work.  
• Make sure the mouse is plugged in properly.  
• Make sure the mouse works when directly plugged into the computer.  
Rebooting may be necessary when trying this.  
• Try a different mouse.  
When I switch from one port to another, mouse movement is  
completely erratic.  
• Make sure you do not have more than one mouse driver installed. Make  
sure that the driver is either for a standard PS/2 mouse or a Microsoft  
computer-compatible PS/2 mouse.  
• Make sure you do not have any mouse drivers loaded in your CONFIG.SYS  
or AUTOEXEC.BAT files.  
• Avoid moving the mouse or pressing the mouse button when switching  
ports on the PRO2.  
You can reset the mouse and resume proper mouse movement simply by  
unplugging the mouse from the front of the PRO2 for about 2-3 seconds,  
and then plugging it in again.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
USB  
I am connecting my computer to the USB PRO2 via USB and my keyboard  
and mouse do not work.  
• Prior to connecting the USB PRO2, make sure that the HID USB driver is  
installed on each computer. (To install the HID USB driver, connect a USB  
mouse and USB keyboard to the computer. A Windows operating system  
should automatically install the drivers.)  
Some of the keys on my keyboard are not functioning properly when I use  
a Mac computer.  
• Because you are using a PC keyboard on a Mac system, a few of the option  
keys on your PC keyboard may be reversed. All major keys will function  
as labeled.
