Unplug all the USB cables of port 1 and port 2 respectively and reconnect them one by one. If you are using a mechanical mouse and keyboard or a mouse with macros, please connect to the USB 3.0 port. Check whether the audio cable, microphone cable, and DP signal cable are connected to the same PC host. Ensure that the audio and microphone devices are powered-on. Check whether the audio and microphone devices are connected to the KVM switch properly. Check whether the sound card of the PC host has recognized the audio and microphone equipment . Check whether the DP signal cables at both ends of the KVM are connected properly. It is recommended that the total length of the cable from the signal source to the display does not exceed 3.3 meters, if it exceeds 3.3 meters, a high-quality signal cable must be connected.
