The quick answer is: [Shift] [Scroll Lock][Scroll Lock] then [Enter] for next computer or [Shift] [Scroll Lock][Scroll Lock] then [1,2,3,or 4] [Enter] to go to specific computer. I would go to Tripp-Lite's web site and see if you can download the manual. Pages 5 and 6 are devoted to hot keys.

I don't believe there is one. You can toggle through your various connected machines by pushing the corresponding button on the front of the unit. This is a simple, desktop unit... I don't think it's meant to act as a server-style KVM.

Try the keyboard short cuts. For example: Cmd + Control + Media Eject on an external keyboard.

Yes you can actually first you need to get a usb hub or splitter and plug it into the mouse port. then you have to turn off mouse emulation. the manual should tell you how. then just plug mouse and keyboard into the splitter/hub and you should be ready to go

It's a keyboard switch. download the manual. Might need "Double Command" shareware if on a Mac to have CNTL key work on a PC keyboard.

yes, you can actually have multiple USB keyboards and mice hooked up to the same computer and use them interchangeably.

You can only pair this keyboard to one device at a time. If you want to switch it between computers/devices, you have to go through the pairing process each time you switch.

There is a code in the booklet to scan that toggles keyboard mode. Scan it once during your setup to turn it on. Once it is enabled, you can double click the button on the scanner and this will toggle between keyboard mode and scan mode.

Absolutely. The switch is on the bottom of the mouse and on the top of the keyboard.

Press the f5 key at the top row of keys where it has the small mouse icon. Hope this helps!

Yes, I use a wireless keyboard with my switch. I can't speak to a mouse, but I don't see why not.

Yes, there is a source button under the display next to the power button that switches between input sources. I have my desktop and laptop attached and switch between them. The only limitation I have found is you can only have one PC hooked up to the USB to the display for touch support, so only one pc can utilize the touch capabilities. No worries for me since I do not use touch on my laptop.

You can either PgDn or PgUp or use your arrow keys. If you have a touch screen you can use the screen as well

Yes indeed. I am doing it right now. My older computer runs on Windows XP, but I cannot run internet on that computer any more, so I got another computer just for internet. I have two monitors, but only one keyboard and one mouse. The switch works very well, just as it is supposed to work. You can connect with me through metric pioneer if you want more details. Thanks for asking.

It has an Fn key. When you connect it to mac, it asks you to enter the keys next to left and right shift keys. Based on that mac automatically detects the keyboard and assigns the alt and option keys at appropriate places.

That might work, but it sounds like it would be a pain to switch between computers. Check out http://synergy-foss.org/. If your 3 computers are all on the same network, you can install Synergy on each one, and share the keyboard and mouse between them. It's seamless. There's no switching involved. Your mouse moves between the monitors as if it was all one big desktop. You can even copy and paste between computers. It's like magic. It's not perfect, but it's pretty cool.
