Switch KVM for dual view monitor

    Wondering if you have advice on a KVM that would work with this monitor as a dual view monitor. If using dual view, the resolution is 1640 by 2048 portrait.

    Basically, I am looking for running two computers to this monitor and using it in dual view mode for both computers (it is a single monitor but can have essentially two portrait desktops.)

    We have a few clarifying questions:

    Does this monitor have two video inputs (one for each portrait desktop)?

    2) What type video inputs does the monitor have (i.e. VGA; DVI)?

    3) Do your computers have two video outputs each?

    4) What type video outputs do the computers have (i.e. VGA; DVI)?

    Please advise.

    A note regarding AdderView 4 PRO DVI MultiScreen, Dual-Head:

    Your monitor is a medical imaging monitor therefore it requires automatic image calibration. Some manufacturers calibrate over the USB connection, other use the DDC pins of the DVI connections. Most monitors will be able to calibrate successfully once Hybrid DDC is enabled on the switch. Instructions about how to enable hybrid DDC can be found in the manual.
