1X4-Port KVM 400336-001 mouse configuration update

[David Gessel]

I have a 400336-001 1X4-Port KVM. It seems to work fine but the mouse is listed as "IBM" and I believe it should be PS/2. I don't have a manual and there doesn't seem to be one on hp.com.

The effect is that the mouse does not work correctly (skips and jumps out of bounds). I can't find a way to change it from the on-screen setup accessed by "printscreen".

The KVM has an RJ45 connector on the back which is apparently a serial connector (bad Compaq - BAD compaq - use standard connectors, RJ45 should be 10BaseT in computerland). I have found the latest firmware, but without a DB9-RJ45 cable it's not much good, and I can't find the pinouts for the cable. Are they available?

Thanks,
David Gessel

On closer inspection, I was confused by the KVM options - my box is older. It's a 242808-002 Compaq Series 4115 4 port KVM switch. The spare part number is 242696-001

Hi David,

did you get any further with that issue ?

I baught a used KVM-switch of this type (4115) also but cannot get ahold of any documentation or firmware.

Can you point me to a site where I can find such stuff ?

Many thanks in advance for your effort.

I believe that this is the manual for the 4110, if that helps...

Hi Jim,

thanks for the manual, I think it matches my hardware pretty much.

Also, at another place in this forum I found the following :

------------------------------------------------

I think the KVM 4110 switch is identical to an APEX Outlook EL-80DT. Documentation is available at:

ftp://ftp.avocent.com/public/product-upgrades/Outlook/EL40-80DT/OL_DT_UG.p
df
------------------------------------------------

I downloaded it and it seems to be a manual for the Compaq 4115 as well.

I'll try all this out and get back with the information.

Thanks again and best regards,
Matthias
