The switch may be controlled locally by manually operating the front panel push button or remotely from the DB9 female Serial Interface Remote port located on the rear of the unit. The front panel LED display indicates the switch position and unit power status, and mode of operation.

If activity on the connected port is lost, and if the other port has established valid activity, the unit automatically switches to the port with activity. As long as there is activity on the present port, the unit will maintain the connection with the connected port. If neither port has activity, it will stay connected to the present port and continue to monitor for active data on both ports to switch to.
