Input device switching an operating channel of a radio transceiver between first and second computer systems

摘要

An input device for switchable use between first and second computer systems. A controller of the input device can execute switching logic to direct a radio transceiver of the input device to switch an operating channel of the radio transceiver to a first channel monitored by the first computer system in response to a first event, and thereby, the input device can be utilized to insert data into the first computer system. The controller can execute switching logic to direct the radio transceiver to switch the operating channel to a second channel monitored by the second computer system in response to a second event, and thereby, the input device can be utilized to insert data into the second computer system.

1. A method comprising:
performing, by a controller, first switching of an operating channel of a radio transceiver of an input device to a first channel monitored by a first computer system in response to a first event; performing, by the controller, second switching of an operating channel of the radio transceiver of the input device to a second channel monitored by a second computer system in response to a second event; restricting, by the controller, one or more of the first switching or the second switching in response to a locking event, wherein the first event and the second event are time periods so that the input device can control movement of a cursor on respective displays of the first computer system and the second computer system simultaneously.
