Adder Command & Control Switch, 4 Port, USB

The Adder CCS4USB Command & Control Switch is a professional grade control switch delivering USB True Emulation for use with modern or custom USB peripherals and audio, with RS232 control.

The CCS4USB delivers USB2.0, bi-directional audio and True Emulation technology. CCS4USB is video independent (so can be used alongside DVI, VGA, Display Port etc). The CCS4USB allows you to work across all 4 computers and screens as though they were a single interface. Adder’s True Emulation technology enables USB HID devices to be continuously emulated to each computer. This technology enables instantaneous and reliable hotkey switching while also supporting the extra keys and features of enhanced keyboards and mice. Furthermore, the CCS4USB includes two independently switchable USB 2.0 Hi Speed channels and an audio channel, giving the user the flexibility to attach selected peripherals to different computers.

The Adder Free-Flow represents true innovation in KVM switching. Free-Flow allows users to automatically switch between target computers simply by moving the mouse pointer from screen to screen. You no longer need software to be installed on your mission critical computers in order to do this. Adder Free-Flow resides on the switch itself, sensing screen boundaries and instantaneously switching keyboard and mouse to the defined target computer. Free-Flow can be configured for almost any combination of screens using the included application which allows you to declare the individual screen sizes and visually position each one relative to the others.

Adder CCS4USB Features:

• True Emulation USB2.0 technology
• Independent simultaneous device selection- Flexibility is key to the CCS4USB. The switch enables you to use the keyboard and mouse on one computer while your USB peripherals are connected to other computers and your speakers are playing audio from yet another. You can of course still switch all the connected devices to any one of the connected computers.
• Channel selection options- The CCS4USB 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 reassign 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 CCS4USB. 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 while 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.
• Synchrony Software switching- Using Adder’s Synchrony software, you can switch channels automatically simply by moving your mouse cursor across the edge of the screen. This means you can seamlessly run you pointer across all 4 connected computers, switching either all ports or just keyboard & mouse as you go.
• Options port for control and upgrade- An ‘Options’ port enables the CCS4USB to be remotely switched using simple ASCII codes. The port enables a 4 button switch unit (RC4) to be used with the CCS4USB. The same port can also be used to upgrade the firmware to guarantee that your hardware investment continues to deliver real value well into the future.
