The Reset command sends a hot-plug sequence to the target device, which causes the mouse and keyboard settings to be sent to the appliance.

Use scan mode to monitor the activity of up to 16 target devices, and to specify which target devices to scan and the number of seconds that each target device will be visible. The scanning order is determined by placement of the target device in the list, which is always shown in scanning order. You can choose to list the target devices by name, eID number, or port number by clicking the corresponding button.

To add target devices to the scan list, complete the following steps:
