Noncompatable resolution Have startech KVM extender SV565. Flashing amber light for noncompatible resolution. Source device is a 800x600 resolution on DVI-D cable. When connected directly to monitor works with no problems. When plugged into KVM switch, flashes noncompatible resolution. Can not figure out why this is not working.

SOURCE: cannot connect to the monitor with one computer.

the compression in the PDF output tab that was causing the issue.

We print on a Durst Lambda RGB imaging device to photographic paper. All color management is done as an early bind (raster files are converted to the printer's color space and vector colors are chosen from a palette database). So basically the files must go through InDesign without any color change in raster or vector information. We have clients that require specific RGB builds for logo colors the are present in both their raster and vector files.
Color Management is set to "North American General Purpose 2" with "RGB: Preserve Embedded Profiles" selected.

1) The file is exported as a PDF 1.4, High Quality, PDF/X_None.
2) The PDF was ripped on a Cheetah RIP (Jaws level 3) with no color management on.
3) Solid raster colors such as 0-255-0 will reproduce as 0-255-1.
4) The color differences between the raster and vector are usually 1-4 points.
5) The vector is consistent as was input in the program—it's only the raster that changes. When you are trying to match raster and vectors logo colors it is a killer.

However, I can go into the InDesign (or Illustrator) color settings and turn color management off (This is our current workflow). In doing this the RGB working space uses the monitor profile and "color management policies" are set to OFF. With these settings the RGB raster and vector match. The problem with this work flow is two fold:

1) We have other devices than our RGB Durst Lambda that can use the InDesign color management—Vutek flat bed 3200 and grand format 3360.

2) We have had many occurrences where the custom "color management off" settings have reverted back to the default "North American General Purpose 2"—without any intervention.

SOURCE: BELKING SWITCH2

I've had one of these switches for a few years now. Just recently hooked it up again, only this time using a MS cordless mouse and keyboard. A bit different than the old wired mouse and keyboard I was using a few years ago, and we ran into this issue this time.

The switch requires the ScrollLock and the #2 to be keyed to switch. Twice on the ScrLk, then the 2 (on the number pad). After trying it with the wired keyboard and it worked, I looked at the wireless keyboard and noticed the ScrLk key was a function key. Hit the F Lock key and tried it again, and it worked this time.

I also found that with the power settings in the "save energy" mode, it had a tendancy not to switch when the other PC was asleep. Try hitting the reboot button to wake it up, and that might help.

Key things: Scroll lock key activated by hitting the Function Lock key. Wake up both systems so you know they're paying attention.

Hope this helps.

SOURCE: KVM Monitor resolution out of frequency and will not display

Restart your system in a VGA mode (you will find this below Safe Mode, by pressing F8 before windows is loading) This way yours screen resolution will be at the very low frequency then you can change it back to the resolution you like. Eg. 800x600 or 1024x768. Remember to keep your Screen refresh rate lower like 75Mhz

SOURCE: mouse and keyboard not recognized on second computer

Sounds like KVM has a bug. Maybe their website has a fix.

SOURCE: using KVM-121 with 2 monitors

You should be able to -- the KVM switch would just switch inputs for the monitor, but since your two monitors would be plugged in directly to your computers, the switch wouldn't actually be affecting your monitor inputs.

Just make sure to plug your monitors directly to your computers and not use the switch.

Computer 1 or 2 light flashing and will not switch !!!

I have found that when the connection is not secure, the switch does not recognize the device.
The KVM gets its power from the connections (Usually the 5 volt video). Different models use different sources, the keyboard uses a 5v signal as well.
Please insure all connections are secure at both ends.
Also some KVMs require separate power.
If you have tried all of the above suggestions, try each output individually to a monitor. If they all work, then you have a defective switch.

When 2 pcs boot at the same time on my GSC1464 switch, the one which the swtich's tune too work the video display like it should but the second limit the second computer (the one who wasn't selected) limit...

When a computer first boots up the video card send a request to the monitor to find on what resolutions the monitor supports. If the video does not get a response the card will default to very low resolutions. The only way to avoid this problem is to boot your computers one at time and keep the KVM on the computer until it fully boots to a desktop. This will allow the KVM to pass the monitor information to the computer.

Noncompatable power system

you can have it changed but the power supply that converts AC to DC is inside the unit. You have to open it up and may void your warranty. You will also have to use the power supply rated for your device. I would suggest to get a transformer. Some voltage regulator have transformers built in them which you can check out.
