Hotkey Operation

Auto Scanning Auto Scan automatically switches among all the active CPU Ports that are accessible to the currently logged on User at regular intervals, so that he can monitor their activity automatically. (See Scan/Skip Mode of the OSD F3 SET function, p. 4-7 for information regarding accessible ports.)

Setting the Scan Interval:

The amount of time Auto Scan dwells on each port is set with the Scan Duration setting of the OSD F3 SET function (see p. 4-7). You can change the scan interval before activating Hotkey Auto Scanning, if you wish, with the following Hotkey combination:

1.Invoke Hotkey Mode (see p. 3-1).

2.Key in [T] [n]

Where [T] is the letter T, and [n] is a number from 1-255 that represents the number of seconds the system dwells on a port before going on to the next.

The letter T and the numbers display on the Command Line as you key them in. If you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong number.

3.Press [Enter]

After you press [Enter], you automatically exit Hotkey Mode, and are ready to invoke Auto Scanning.
