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

A computer program product comprising:

• a computer readable hardware storage device and program instructions stored on the computer readable hardware storage device for execution by a controller to implement a method comprising:
• performing 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 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;
• and
• restricting 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.

A computer system comprising:

• a computer readable storage device, a controller, and program code stored on the computer readable storage device and executable by the controller to perform a method comprising:
• performing 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 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;
• and
• restricting 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.
