Quick Start

Set up your LeafKVM in just a few steps:

1. Connect USB-C from the LeafKVM to your target computer for keyboard, mouse, and virtual media.
   • This connection will usually power the LeafKVM as well.
2. Attach a full-size HDMI Type-A cable between the LeafKVM and the target’s HDMI output.
3. Join the network by plugging in Ethernet or configuring WLAN.
4. The touchscreen will show the assigned IP address once the device is ready.
5. Enter this IP address in any web browser to access the LeafKVM interface. Detailed info.

You’re now ready to control the system remotely.

Note

• For remote access to work, the LeafKVM and the computer you’re using to view it must be on the same subnet or otherwise routable to each other.
• If you enable Wi-Fi AP mode, LeafKVM’s built-in DHCP server will automatically assign an IP address to your device.
