In today\u2019s fast-paced control room environments, operators need tools that streamline workflows and reduce complexity. Our feature-rich KVM solutions<\/a> are designed with exactly that in mind, empowering teams to work more efficiently and with greater flexibility. Every G&D KVM matrix system<\/a> comes with powerful configurable features, enabled through feature keys that make a real difference in day-to-day operations.<\/p>\n

With innovations such as CrossDisplay-Switching, FreeSeating, the Push-Get Function, and Scenario Switching, operators can seamlessly manage multiple systems, personalize their workspace, and adapt quickly to dynamic situations \u2013 all while maintaining focus on the task at hand. With these powerful features, our KVM solutions help operators work smarter, faster, and more efficiently no matter how complex the control room environment.<\/p>\n

1. CrossDisplay-Switching – Automatically Switch with the Mouse<\/h2>\n

CrossDisplay-Switching<\/a> makes working with multiple computers and screens seamless. Operators can simply move their mouse cursor from one display to another, and the keyboard\/mouse control automatically switches to the computer connected to that screen. This creates a \u201cvirtual desktop\u201d experience where multiple systems feel like one continuous workspace. The result is faster, more intuitive operation. There\u2019s no need to think about the underlying infrastructure. With flexible display arrangements and support for unlimited monitors, CrossDisplay-Switching helps operators stay focused and efficient in even the most complex control room environments.<\/p>\n

2. FreeSeating – Customize Setups for Every Control Room Workplace<\/h2>\n

FreeSeating<\/a> gives operators the flexibility to bring their personalized workspace with them, no matter which console they log into. With a simple login, their preferred sources and most recent settings are instantly restored, creating a seamless, customized experience every time. This not only speeds up transitions between workstations but also ensures operators can get straight to work without reconfiguring their setup. By making switching user-bound rather than workstation-bound, FreeSeating streamlines workflows and helps maximize productivity across the control room.<\/p>\n

3. Push-Get Function – Easily Share Screen Content<\/h2>\n

Push-Get<\/a> makes collaboration in the control room simple and efficient. With just a click, operators can push the content of their screen to a colleague\u2019s monitor or a video wall for everyone to see or get content from another screen onto their own. This instant sharing of critical information speeds up decision-making, improves communication, and ensures everyone is working with the same data. By making screen content easy to distribute or retrieve, Push-Get enhances flexibility, teamwork, and overall efficiency in any control room environment.<\/p>\n

4. Scenario Switching – Easily Operate Matrix Systems<\/h2>\n

Scenario Switching<\/a> simplifies the operation of complex KVM matrix systems by allowing entire workstation or system configurations to be saved and recalled with a single command. Instead of manually switching multiple monitors and sources one by one, operators can store preferred setups\u2014whether for everyday workflows or emergency situations\u2014and instantly restore them when needed. This makes it faster and easier to adapt to changing tasks, ensures consistency across shifts, and eliminates time-consuming repetitive actions. With Scenario Switching, even the most complex control room setups can be operated with ease and efficiency.<\/p>\n
