Invoking Auto Scan:

To start Auto Scanning, key in the following Hotkey combination:

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

2.Press [A].

When you press A, you automatically exit Hotkey Mode; enter Auto Scan Mode; and Auto Scanning begins.

M While you are in Auto Scan Mode, you can pause the scanning in order to keep the focus on a particular computer either by pressing P or with a Left Click of the mouse. During the time that Auto Scanning is paused, the Command Line displays:

Auto Scan: Paused.

Pausing when you want to keep the focus on a particular computer is more convenient than Exiting Auto Scan Mode because when you Resume scanning, you start from where you left off.

If, on the other hand, you were to Exit Auto Scan Mode, scanning would start over from the very first computer on the installation when you restarted.

To resume Auto Scanning after Pausing, press any key or Left

Click. Scanning continues from where it left off.

MWhile Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended - only Auto Scan Mode compliant keystrokes and mouse clicks can be input. You must exit Auto Scan Mode in order to regain normal control of the console.

3.To exit Auto Scan Mode press [Esc] or [Spacebar]. Auto Scanning stops when you exit Auto Scan Mode.
