In this embodiment, the first KVM module may include or be connected to an operation module capable of generating an operation signal, and the user may use the operation module to input the first operation signal to the first KVM module. The first KVM module may continuously determine whether the received first operation signal meets a preset operation condition.
Specifically, the operation module may be a mouse and/or a keyboard and/or other operation modules, and the preset operation condition may be that a mouse cursor is double-clicked in a preset area of the first audio-visual interface, or moves in a preset direction in a preset area of the first audio-visual interface, or other conditions set according to a user requirement, which are not limited herein.
Step S13: if so, the mode switching command signal is sent to the target second KVM module corresponding to the first operation signal, so that the target second KVM module sends the first video and audio data.
In this embodiment, when the first operation signal meets the preset operation condition, the target second KVM module corresponding to the first operation signal may be determined based on the first operation signal, and then a mode switch command signal may be sent to the target second KVM module, so that the target second KVM module sends the first video/audio data to the first KVM module.
Specifically, the target second KVM module is a second KVM module corresponding to the first operation signal among the plurality of second KVM modules, and the first video/audio data may be provided by a host included in or connected to the target second KVM module.
Step S14: and acquiring the first video and audio data, and displaying a second video and audio interface based on the first video and audio data.
In this embodiment, the first KVM module may display the second audio/video interface on the display module based on the received first audio/video data sent from the second KVM module, so that the user may access the data of the host included in or connected to the target second KVM module through the first KVM module.

and acquiring a second operation signal, and sending the second operation signal to the target second KVM module so that the target second KVM module generates and returns second video and audio data based on the second operation signal.
And acquiring second video and audio data, and displaying a third video and audio interface based on the second video and audio data.
In this embodiment, after the mode switch command signal is sent to the target second KVM module, the user may use the operation module to input the second operation signal to the first KVM module, and the first KVM module may forward the received second operation signal to the target second KVM module, so that the target second KVM module controls the host included or connected to the target second KVM module based on the second operation signal, generates the second video/audio data based on the result of the control, and sends the generated second video/audio data to the first KVM module, and the first KVM module may display the third video/audio interface on the display module based on the received second video/audio data, so that the user may control the host included or connected to the target second KVM module through the first KVM module.
Optionally, the preset operation condition is that the mouse cursor moves in a preset direction in a preset area of the first video interface.
Specifically, the preset operation condition may be that the mouse cursor moves in an up/down/left/right direction at an up/down/left/right boundary of the first audio-visual interface, or that the mouse cursor moves in a certain preset direction within a range of other areas of the first audio-visual interface, which is not limited herein.
Further, the first KVM module and the plurality of second KVM modules are sequentially connected to form a cascade communication loop.
The first operation signal is that the mouse cursor moves to the right direction at the right boundary of the first video interface.
In step S13, sending a mode switch command signal to the target second KVM module corresponding to the first operation signal includes:
and sending a mode switching command signal to a first target second KVM module positioned on the right side of the first KVM module in the cascade communication loop.
Further, the method for sending a mode switch command signal to a first target second KVM module in the cascade communication loop on the right side of the first KVM module includes:
and sending the mode switching command signal to the next second KVM module in the cascade sequence of the cascade communication loop, so that the next second KVM module sends the mode switching command signal to the other next second KVM module in the cascade sequence of the cascade communication loop until the mode switching command signal is sent to the target second KVM module.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a KVM system of the present application, where the KVM system includes a first KVM module 21 and N-1 second KVM modules (second KVM modules 22, 23, 24 to 2N), one of the second KVM modules is a target second KVM module 23, the first KVM module 21 and each second KVM module (including the target second KVM module 23) are sequentially connected to form a cascade communication loop in fig. 2, signals or data sent by any one of the second KVM modules can be finally transmitted to the first KVM module 21 through receiving and transmitting of each of the second KVM modules between the cascade communication loop and the first KVM module 21, and signals sent by the first KVM module 21 can also be finally transmitted to any one of the second KVM modules through the cascade communication loop, so as to achieve communication between any two KVM modules in the cascade communication loop.
If the first operation signal is that the mouse cursor moves in the right direction at the right boundary of the first audio visual interface and the preset operation condition is that the mouse cursor moves in the right direction at the right boundary of the first audio visual interface, a mode switching command signal is sent to a first target second KVM module 23 located on the right side of the first KVM module 21 in the cascade communication loop shown in fig. 2, where the target second KVM module 23 is a second KVM module corresponding to the first operation signal preset in each second KVM module.
In addition to the above-mentioned predetermined operating condition, other predetermined operating conditions may be included, and when the first operating signal satisfies any one of the predetermined operating conditions, the target second KVM module 23 may be determined based on the current first operating signal and the mode switch command signal may be sent thereto.
It should be noted that in the conventional KVM system, control devices (such as a mouse and a keyboard) of each host and each client need to be connected to a KVM switch having a bidirectional optical matrix, and the connection between different hosts and different clients needs to be switched through the bidirectional optical matrix. The conventional KVM system has a disadvantage in that the KVM host device and the client device are not the same device, and the number of hosts and the number of clients of the KVM system are limited by the size of the bidirectional optical matrix, so that the size of the bidirectional optical matrix needs to be increased to increase the maximum number of connectable hosts and the number of clients, which is costly and complex.
In this application, compared with the traditional KVM system, the cascade communication loop circuit avoids the use of a bidirectional optical matrix, but adopts a cascade communication connection mode based on optical fiber communication, the delay of communication transmission is also extremely low, and the number of the hosts and the number of clients (such as a mouse, a keyboard, a display and the like) can be directly increased by adding the cascade KVM module, and meanwhile, the KVM host device and the client device use the same device, so that the system has simpler structure and lower hardware cost, and is completely suitable for the control method of the KVM system of this application.
Further, the first KVM module and the plurality of second KVM modules are sequentially connected to form a cascade communication loop.
The first operation signal is that the mouse cursor moves downwards at the lower boundary of the first video interface.
The method for sending the mode switching command signal to the target second KVM module corresponding to the first operation signal comprises the following steps:
and sending a mode switching command signal to a first target second KVM module positioned in the first KVM module according to the cascade communication loop direction.
Specifically, if the first operation signal is that the mouse cursor moves in the downward direction at the lower boundary of the first audio visual interface, and the preset operation condition is that the mouse cursor moves in the downward direction at the lower boundary of the first audio visual interface, the mode switch command signal is sent to the first target second KVM module 23 located on the right side of the first KVM module 21 in the cascade communication loop as shown in fig. 2.
For example, in an actual application scenario, as shown in fig. 2, the KVM system includes a first KVM module 21, and second KVM modules 22 to 2N (including a target second KVM module 23). FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a KVM module of the present application. The KVM module comprises: a video and audio de-embedding module 31, a data exchange and command management module 32, a data de-serialization module 33, a data serialization module 34 and a control module 35.
The video/audio de-embedding module 31 may be used to de-embed and separate video/audio data to obtain video data and audio data, or may directly receive audio data, and then send the video data and/or audio data to the data exchange and command management module 32. The audio-video data or audio data received by the audio-video data de-embedding module 31 may be data transmitted by a host connected to the KVM module where the audio-video data de-embedding module 31 is located, i.e. local audio-video data or audio data.
The data exchange and command management module 32 may be configured to interface with a USB interface of a host and a USB interface of a device module (e.g., a mouse and a keyboard in an operation module) for bi-directional transmission of data (e.g., operation signals) between the host and the device module. The data exchange and command management module 32 may also output video data and/or audio data so that the user may read the video data and/or audio data via a local display and/or sound.
In addition, the data exchange and command management module 32 may be connected to the data deserializing module 33 and the data deserializing module 34, respectively, and one KVM module (the first KVM module or the second KVM module) may be communicatively connected to the data deserializing module of the other KVM module (e.g., a fiber optic communication connection implemented by the photoelectric conversion input and the photoelectric conversion output in fig. 3) through the data deserializing module 34 thereof, so as to implement cascading of the two KVM modules. Based on the cascade connection mode of the two KVM modules, each KVM module in the KVM system can be cascade-connected to form a cascade communication loop as shown in fig. 2. The KVM modules can mutually transmit video and audio data and/or operation signals through the cascade communication loop.
The data deserializing module 33 may be used to deserialize the received data before sending the deserialized data to the data exchange and command management module 32.
The data serialization module 34 may be used to receive the data sent by the data exchange and command management module 32 and serialize the data before sending the serialized data to the next KVM module.
The control module 35 is operable to configure the data exchange and command management module 32 accordingly based on user settings to enable identification of the source of data entered by each KVM module based on the data deserialization module.
In the KVM system shown in fig. 2, it is assumed that the display currently connected to the first KVM module 21 displays a frame based on the first audio/video interface generated by the audio/video data of the host connected to the first KVM module 21, and the preset operation condition is that the mouse cursor moves in the right direction at the right boundary of the current audio/video interface.
When the mouse cursor moves in the right direction at the right boundary of the first video-audio interface, the first KVM module 21 sends the mode switching command information to the second KVM module 22 to transmit the video-audio data of the host connected thereto to the first KVM module 21 through the cascade communication loop, and the first KVM module 21 can generate and display the second video-audio interface based on the video-audio data of the second KVM module 22.
When the mouse cursor moves in the right direction at the right boundary of the second video/audio interface, the first KVM module 21 sends the mode switching command information to the second KVM module 23 through the cascade communication loop, so that the first KVM module 21 transmits the video/audio data of the host connected thereto to the first KVM module 21 through the cascade communication loop, and the first KVM module 21 can generate and display the third video/audio interface based on the video/audio data of the second KVM module 23. The second KVM module 23 is the current target second KVM module.
It should be noted that, when the KVM module of the frame displayed by the first KVM module is the first KVM module, both the first KVM module and each second KVM module are in the local control mode, and each KVM module can only control the host connected to itself and display the frame corresponding to the host connected to itself.
When the KVM module of the frame displayed by the first KVM module is a target second KVM module, the first KVM module is in a conference control mode to display the frame of the target second KVM module and control the host corresponding to the second KVM module, the target second KVM module is in a remote control mode to transmit the video and audio data to the first KVM module and is controlled by the operation signal of the first KVM module, and the modules except the target second KVM module in each second KVM module are in a local control mode.
When a KVM module is in the conference control mode, the audio data outputted from the KVM module to the local is from any KVM module except the KVM module in the KVM system, and the video data outputted from the KVM module to the local is from any KVM module in the KVM system. The switching of the video data sources can be performed through the data exchange and command module 32 (the data exchange and command module 32 may be configured with a corresponding button switching module), and the video data output to the local may be the local video data input by the video/audio de-embedding module 31 or the video data of a certain KVM module input by the data de-serializing module 33.
Therefore, through the mode, the user can continuously move the mouse cursor to the right on the right boundary of the current audio visual interface, so that the switching of corresponding pictures of the host controlled by the first KVM module and the displayed host is realized, the host connected with any KVM module in the KVM system can be further realized through the first KVM module, and the use convenience of the KVM system is improved. The above scheme is merely an embodiment of the present application, and the preset operation condition may be other types of conditions (such as that the mouse cursor moves left at the left boundary of the current audio-visual interface, or that the mouse cursor turns back up and down several times within a certain preset range, or a certain keyboard operation signal, or other types of operation signals), which are not limited herein. The corresponding relationship between the preset operation condition and the target second KVM module may also be set according to the user requirement, which is not limited herein.
Compared with the prior art, when the first KVM module judges that the received first operation signal meets the preset operation condition, the first KVM module sends a mode switching command signal to the target second KVM module so as to send first video and audio data, and the first KVM module displays a second video and audio interface based on the first video and audio data, so that a user can use a host corresponding to the target second KVM module through the first KVM module, the convenience of the KVM system is improved, and the working efficiency of the user when using the KVM system is further improved.
The application also provides a control method of the KVM system, which is applied to the KVM system, wherein the KVM system comprises a first KVM module and a plurality of second KVM modules which are connected in a communication way.
