KVM Mode
KVM Mode, in ISBoxer terms, is the ability to send keystrokes or mouse clicks to other windows than the one currently active -- regardless of whether that window is on the current PC, or on another linked PC. When enabled, the current window will still handle any assigned Hotkeys -- any other keystrokes or clicks will pass directly to the game in the target window or windows.

Methods of Enabling KVM Mode
Repeater Target Action
Checking the Block buttons from originating window in a Repeater Target Action will cause any keystrokes or clicks to go to the selected Repeater Target, but not the current window (unless it is included in the Repeater Target).
Send Next Click
Checking the Block click from current window box in a Mapped Key with Send Next Click, or in a Send Next Click Action will cause the next click to go to the selected Target, but not the current window (unless it is included in the Target).
Example Mapped Keys
Turn on Repeater for controlling a specific window from the current one
- Step 1 will enable the KVM, Step 2 will disable it and restore the Repeater Target
- Step 1
- Repeater Target Action
- Target Window:Current
- New Repeater Target Slot 2
- Block buttons from originating window enabled
- Repeater State Action
- Key repeat On
- Mouse repeat On
- Repeater Target Action
- Step 2
- Repeater State Action
- Key repeat Off
- Mouse repeat Off

- Target Window:Current
- New Repeater Target Window:All w/o Current
- Block buttons from originating window unchecked

KVM to a given Character
This example is for World of Warcraft on multiple PCs, but it may give you some ideas. Note that to broadcast to a specific window on another PC, you must put that Character in its own Action Target Group (it can be the character's name for example).
So you might do something like this:
- Mapped Key 1 (CTRL+F1)
- WoW Macro Action: CTRL+F1, /focus <main char name, main PC>
- Repeater State Action: Off
- Repeater Target Action: "all w/o current"
- Popup Text Action: KVM Mode: Char 1
- Mapped Key 2 (CTRL+F2)
- WoW Macro Action: CTRL+F2, /focus <char 2 name>
- Repeater Target Action: "action target group for char 2"
- Repeater State Action: On
- Popup Text Action: KVM Mode: Char 2
- Mapped Key 3 (CTRL+F3)
- WoW Macro Action: CTRL+F3, /focus <char 3 name>
- Repeater Target Action: "action target group for char 3"
- Repeater State Action: On
- Popup Text Action: KVM Mode: Char 3
... and so on, copying 2 and 3 (1 is different because it needs to disable the KVM mode)
