6. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

Se riscontri problemi con il tuo IOGEAR GCS1932H, fai riferimento ai seguenti problemi comuni e alle relative soluzioni:

ProblemaPossibile causa/soluzione
No video display or flickering after switching.
  • Assicurarsi che tutti i cavi HDMI siano collegati saldamente.
  • Verify that the monitor supports the resolution and refresh rate output by the computer.
  • Check for HDCP compliance issues; use high-quality, HDCP-compliant HDMI cables.
  • Try power cycling the KVM switch and then the computers.
Keyboard/Mouse not responding after switching.
  • Ensure USB cables from computers to the KVM are securely connected.
  • Connect keyboard and mouse to the dedicated console USB ports on the KVM.
  • Some USB devices may require direct connection to the computer or a powered USB hub if the KVM's power delivery is insufficient.
  • If "USB not recognized" errors occur initially, subsequent switches usually resolve this.
Audio is too quiet or not working.
  • Verify audio cables are correctly connected from computers to the KVM and from the KVM to speakers/headphones.
  • Check volume levels on both the computer and the connected audio device.
  • Note that audio output from the KVM may be quieter than direct connection; adjust volume accordingly.
Monitor does not go to sleep or wakes up immediately.
  • This can sometimes occur with KVMs. Try unplugging the KVM power briefly to reset, or adjust power management settings on your computer.
Switching takes too long (e.g., 5-6 seconds).
  • This is a characteristic of some digital KVM switches, especially with high resolutions and HDCP. This is generally considered normal operation for this model.

If the problem persists, consult the full product manual or contact IOGEAR technical support.
