I have a KVM switch (from Level1tech) 4 monitors (all four are Barco monitors MDNC 3421) and 2 PCs. KVM doesn't have EDID built in. All monitors are connected via DisplayPort.

I have separate software Radiology PACs system on both computers. When I switch from one PC to another the monitors lose positioning of current layout.

So I am wondering what is the best EDID emulator to utilize?

The main feature of the KVM switch is it supports 3 monitors. It also supports 4 devices, but I'm only using 2 at the moment, both of which are Windows 11 laptops. Of the 3 monitor connections per device on the KVM switch (both input and output), 1 is HDMI and...

DisplayPort convert to HDMI]]> Fri, 15 May 2020 14:46:12 +0000 http://hc.kvmgalore.com/threads/hdmi-adapter.1865/ http://hc.kvmgalore.com/threads/hdmi-adapter.1865/ invalid@example.com (Brian) Brian
Looking for an adapter (set) to convert HDMI to CAT-6 cable. I ran CAT-6 from TV to remote area in mechanical room where my AV equipment is. Roughly 50-60ft run of CAT-6. Any help would be great!

Looking to control a stand-alone serial device via a VGA monitor and a USB keyboard (NOT through a KVM switch or any IP connection). But I'm noticing KA9140 supports a PS/2 keyboard only.

Worse case scenario we could use KA9140 with a PS/2 to USB adapter, but I'd like to avoid that if possible.

Can you offer a device similar to KA9140 that supports a USB keyboard?]]> 1 Tue, 29 Nov 2016 21:16:54 +0000 http://hc.kvmgalore.com/threads/hdmi-to-dvi-question.347/ http://hc.kvmgalore.com/threads/hdmi-to-dvi-question.347/ invalid@example.com (Brooks) Brooks HKM-02 2 port KVMP switch. Then I discovered that the video card on one of my PC's only accepts serial (old fashioned 15 pin cord) input or DVI, no HDMI.

Since I have an HD monitor, I need to use the DVI input, but the HKM-02 seems to only have HDMI inputs.

Can you please recommend an adaptor for this purpose?

Thanks,

The KVM is marvelous! The one problem I have however, is trying to connect the DVI KVM cable to a PC with only an Analog output.

I tried the adapters I purchased, but there is no video.
Did I need a different adapter?]]> 3 Tue, 24 Sep 2013 20:09:00 +0000 http://hc.kvmgalore.com/threads/usb-to-ps-2-adapter.25/ http://hc.kvmgalore.com/threads/usb-to-ps-2-adapter.25/ invalid@example.com (Kenneth) Kenneth
Do you have an adapter that will receive the USB cable and let me plug it into an older PC's PS/2 ports.

Here is an example

We currently use a powered converter from HDMI to composite/component but wanted to ask if there is any better way now (being a few months down the track..)!]]> 1
