Description

The computer switch of programmable switching controls
Technical field
The present invention is relevant for a kind of computer switch, specifically, relevant for a kind of, a control end device and a universal serial bus device can be switched to the computer switch of control end function or line concentration port function.
Background technology
Computer switch is for being arranged between various control end devices (such as mouse, keyboard, screen, loudspeaker, visual device etc.) and a plurality of computer installation, its optional majority computer installation one of them, so that control end device can be controlled selected computer installation, and export computer installation for the response of instruction.In addition, computer switch itself also has USB (universal serial bus) (being designated hereinafter simply as USB) line concentration port, for plug-in mounting USB device.But the USB device on computer switch only can be controlled one of them person of a plurality of computer installations, or controlled by this computer installation, do not there is the function that control end device is controlled a plurality of computer installations.Please refer to Fig. 3, it is the computer switch according to prior art.General computer switch 300 comprises USB line concentration port interface 301 conventionally, for user can external one or more USB device 301-1 to 301-4 (such as Portable disk, mouse, keyboard, printer etc.); Control end interface 302, can external one or more control end device 302-1 to 302-2; One matrix commutation circuit 303, is connected in most computer interfaces (being N shown in Fig. 3) 305, this USB line concentration port interface 301, this control end interface 302; Main control circuit 304, is connected in most computer interfaces 305 and this matrix commutation circuit 303.Computer interface 305 can be connected to a computer installation (not shown), for example personal computer, mobile computer, intelligent mobile phone or personal digital assistant (PDA).As can be seen from Figure 3, control end device 302-1 can be connected in main control circuit 304 via the control end switching interface 3031 in matrix commutation circuit 303 to 302-2, thereby control most computer interfaces 305, but USB device 301-1 sees through matrix commutation circuit 303 and connects respectively and only transfer control signal is to N computer interface 305 one of them person to 301-4, or the computer installation that connected by this computer interface 305 is controlled.For example, in Fig. 3, USB device 301-1 sees through matrix commutation circuit 303 and is connected in the first computer interface 305; USB device 301-2 sees through matrix commutation circuit 303 and is connected in second computer interface 305.Can further by matrix commutation circuit 303, select USB device 301-1 to the annexation of 301-4 and computer interface 305.
But above structure cannot meet changeable various environmental baselines or special operational needs completely.Reason is, the USB device 301-1 that USB line concentration port interface 301 connects only has line concentration port function to 301-4, and does not have control end function (give each computer interface 305 such as giving an order, switch between each computer interface 305 with hot key etc.).The control end device 302-1 being connected with control end interface 302 when computer switch 300 is arranged at while not existing together to 302-2, can cause difficulty especially.For example, when computer switch 300 is arranged in machine room, and the control end device 302-1 that each control end interface 302 connects is while being arranged in pulpit via wiring to 302-2, user cannot be in real time in machine room time controls each computer interface not being connected 305 with the USB device 301-1 of near-end to 301-4, still must get back to pulpit and could to 302-2, be controlled with control end device 302-1.Like this cause the problem having much room for improvement in maintenance and special operating environment demand.
Summary of the invention:
In view of the restriction of said structure, the invention provides a kind of computer switch of programmable switching controls, can be in order to a control end device and a USB device be switched to control end function or line concentration port function.
The computer connector of embodiment comprises one of according to the present invention: a control end interface, has control end Port, in order to be connected with the control end device that is initially control end function; One USB (universal serial bus) line concentration port interface, has USB (universal serial bus) line concentration port connectivity port, in order to be connected with the universal serial bus device that is initially line concentration port function; A most computer interface, each computer interface has computer connection interface, in order to be connected with a computer installation respectively; One matrix commutation circuit, is connected with this control end interface, this USB (universal serial bus) line concentration port interface, most computer interfaces respectively; One main control circuit, be connected between this matrix commutation circuit and this majority computer interface, according to the type of this universal serial bus device or according to the steering order from control end device, and this control end device is remained on to control end function or switched to line concentration port function, and this universal serial bus device is remained to line concentration port function or switches to control end function, wherein, this main control circuit is sent to this majority computer interface by the control signal from having the coupling arrangement of control end function by wiring.
According to computer switch of the present invention, be connected in USB device one of them or more this majority computer interface of controlling of USB line concentration port interface, reach the effect of the multi-control end of multi-user, or replace the function of original control end interface completely.Or, the control end device that is connected in control end interface can be directly connected in via matrix commutation circuit this majority computer installation one of them, change the device with line concentration port function into.
