Title: F1U109 Reversible AutoSwitch

User's Manual

I. Introduction

Thank you for purchasing Belkin Components' Reversible AutoSwitch! With the Reversible AutoSwitch, sharing one printer

between two PCs, or having one PC select from two printers is easier than ever - no more swapping cables, turning knobs, or

pushing buttons.

In forward mode, the AutoSwitch allows sharing of one printer among two computers. The AutoSwitch polls each port

constantly, waiting for a computer to request access to the printer. Once the AutoSwitch detects a computer wanting to print,

it will automatically lock onto that PC's port, and provide communication to the printer. When no more data is being

transferred after the TIME_OUT period, the switch will return to scanning both ports.

The AutoSwitch can also be “reversed”, allowing one computer to select between two printers. For instance, you can easily

switch between a laser and ink jet printer from any application. The included software creates special “virtual ports” which give

you printer selection capability from any Windows® 95 or 98 application.

The Reversible AutoSwitch will open a world of printing possibilities, unparalleled by any device on the market today in price

and performance.
