No. Plugable USB sharing switches do not feature autosense or automatic switching capabilities. The connected host computer must be selected manually using the physical button on the unit.

Why the Sharing Switch Requires Manual Switching

The switch is designed as a mechanical-style toggle to ensure a stable connection between the peripheral and the active host. Implementing autosense could lead to accidental switching if a computer performs a background task or power cycle while the other terminal is in use.

How to Switch Between Computers

To change which computer has control of the connected USB devices, press the silver button located on the top of the switch . the LED indicator will change to show which host port is currently active.
