    Programmable gaming keyboards are not standard HID devices and they may not work correctly with our (or other KVM manufacturer’s) emulation.

    Connecting the keyboard to one of the switched ports (marked USB1 and USB2) should allow the keyboard to work (assuming that the use of USB hubs is supported by the manufacturer of the keyboard) but switching will need to be done using mouse switching, RC4-8P8C or pressing the front panel push button.

    Further Clarification.
    AV4PRO-DVI MultiScreen units have two types of USB ports, enumerated (USB1 and USB2 mentioned earlier) and emulated. Programmable keyboards may work connected to one of the enumerated (or switched) ports but not when they are connected to emulated ports.
    Please note that at switchover (when the channel is changed) devices that are connected to enumerated ports are disconnected from one computer and are connected to the next system and they may not be available for a few seconds (until they operating system of the computer enumerates them). When the keyboard is connected to one of the enumerated ports hotkey switching is not available, the user must switch between computers using mouse switching, remote control (RC4-8P8C) or the front panel push button.
