Belkin P75472-A manual Using the CAT5 Extender, Hot-Key Commands Operation for Receiver

Using the CAT5 Extender

Once the CAT5 Extender is installed, the video will display at both the local and remote consoles. However, only one console can have control of the mouse and keyboard input at one time. The control is determined automatically. To gain control, the active console must remain idle for two seconds.

Note: If your receiver is connected to both local and remote computers (acting as a 2-port KVM switch), in order to switch between them, you must use the hot-key Scroll Lock command. Please see the “Hot-Key Commands Operation” section below:

Hot-Key Commands Operation for Receiver

To send commands to the CAT5 Extender, the hot key (Scroll Lock) must be pressed twice within two seconds. You will hear a beep of confirmation.

If you have not pressed any key in hot-key mode within two seconds,

the keyboard will return to a normal state. The following example illustrates using the hot-key Scroll Lock command to switch between local and remote ports.

The table below lists all supported hot-key commands.

Command	Function
C	Toggle switch between local and
	remote ports
Q	Turn beep sound on/off
A	Auto-adjust video signal to optimum
