LINDY CPU Switch USB 
Installation and Use 
Page 19 
disabled using option switch 3. If the third button is being used to switch the LINDY 
CPU Switch USB then it is not available for use with PC software although the 
function of an IntelliMouse wheel is not affected. If you wish to use the full function 
of a 3 button mouse or IntelliMouse for your PC software then you should disable 
mouse channel switching. 
 
2.5 Powering on the LINDY CPU Switch USB 
 
The LINDY CPU Switch USB is powered from the supplied mains power adapter. 
There is no on/off switch on the LINDY CPU Switch USB so it will start to operate as 
soon as the power adapter has been connected to the LINDY CPU Switch USB and 
plugged into the mains supply. 
 
2.6 Configuring your computers 
 
We recommend that you configure each computer in turn for operation with your 
USB devices without changing the LINDY CPU Switch USB’s channel. Configure 
your computers as if the USB devices were connected directly to the computer. 
Some PC compatible computers may not recognise a USB keyboard or mouse until 
a suitable driver has been loaded. It may only be possible to load these drivers if 
you have keyboard and mouse control and so consequently you may need to 
connect a traditional style PS/2 keyboard and mouse to load the USB drivers. Once 
these USB drivers have been loaded the PS/2 keyboard and mouse may be 
disconnected. 
 
Remember that you must be using a suitable operating system such as 
Windows 98 or Mac OS 8.6.  
If you are using a version of Apple’s operating system earlier than 8.6 then you 
must upgrade to a later version. This upgrade is available on Apple’s website. 
If you use an earlier operating system then your peripherals will hang after 
typically 25 channel changes. 
 
2.7 Re-enabling a disconnected LINDY PS/2 mouse (32 341 only) 
If you disconnect the LINDY PS/2-style mouse from the LINDY CPU Switch USB by 
accident during operation then the mouse operation will be lost when the mouse is 
plugged back in. To avoid having to reboot the entire system in this situation the 
LINDY CPU Switch USB is fitted with an automatic mouse recovery system. 
With the LINDY PS/2 mouse disconnected, change the channel using the front 
panel key or keyboard hotkeys. The LINDY CPU Switch USB detects that the mouse
