FEATURES
USB keyboard and mouse control
The ADDERView Pro features high 
resolution VGA video with extended 
DDC EDID profile. The extended DDC 
EDID profile ensures that the switched 
graphics card is always optimised to work 
with your screen. The VGA capabilities 
enable users to work at high resolutions 
on each head for resolution intensive 
applications such as media/graphic design 
or detailed medical imaging.  
True Emulation USB 2.0 technology
The AV4PRO-VGA belongs to the first 
KVMA range of switches to feature 
Adder’s advanced True USB Emulation 
technology. Emulated USB provides an 
instantaneous and reliable switching 
action and makes keyboard hotkey and 
mouse switching possible. Previous 
implementations have used generic 
emulations and consequently have only 
been able to support the most basic 
keyboard and mouse features. Adder’s 
revolutionary True Emulation technology 
overcomes this frustrating limitation 
by emulating the true character of the 
connected devices to all the computers 
simultaneously. This means that you can 
now use the extra function keys, wheels, 
buttons and controls that are commonly 
found on modern keyboards and mice.  
Independent simultaneous device 
selection
Flexibility is key to the ADDERView Pro. 
The switch enables you to use the KVMA 
console to work on one computer whilst 
your USB peripherals are connected to 
other computers and your speakers are 
playing music from yet another.  You can of 
course still switch all connected devices 
to any one of the connected computers 
as with any other KVM switch.
Channel selection options
The ADDERView Pro can be switched 
using selectable keyboard hotkeys, 3 
button mice or the front panel controls.  
Optionally, you can also use the RC4 
remote switch to make your selection.
These switching options allow you to 
rapidly reasign connected devices to any 
of the connected computers.
Broad USB 2.0 Hi Speed device support
A vast range of USB devices can be 
connected to the ADDERView Pro, from 
non standard human interface devices 
to printers and scanners. This gives great 
flexibility. For example, you could be 
scanning a set of documents onto one 
computer whilst working on another 
and printing from yet another, all at 
the same time. The USB 2.0 switching 
action has been carefully engineered to 
ensure maximum computer reliability 
when connecting and disconnecting USB 
devices. 
Options port for control, synchronisation 
and upgrade
An ‘Options’ port enables the AV4PRO-
VGA to be remotely switched using 
simple ASCII codes. When the channel 
is switched, the same ASCII codes are 
echoed to the ‘Options’ port and so, 
by linking ‘Options’ ports, two or more 
PRODUCT IN BRIEF
The AV4PRO-VGA is designed to 
enable four multihead computers to be 
controlled from a single high resolution 
KVM console using high definition  
analogue VGA video links. The switch 
makes use of Adder’s USB True 
Emulation technology which enables 
USB HID devices to be continuously 
emulated to each computer. This unique 
technology enables instantaneous 
and reliable hotkey switching whilst 
also supporting the extra keys and 
features of enhanced keyboards and 
mice. Furthermore, the ADDERView 
4PRO-VGA includes two independently 
switchable USB 2.0 channels and an 
audio channel, giving the user the 
flexibility to attach selected peripherals 
to different computers.
