OVERVIEW

Hot Keys

Hot key functionality allows you to select a port using key commands; hot key sequences let you select one computer from as many as 256 computers, instantly.

Reprogrammable Hot Key Initiator Sequence

The Switch allows you to select up to six alternate keys to initiate hot key commands; this creates compatibility with keyboards that either do not feature identical keys or that may have programmed identical keys to perform other functions. These settings can be configured through IntelliView. For more information, please refer to the “IntelliView Features” section of this manual on page 21.

AutoScan

The AutoScan feature allows you to set your Switch to scan and monitor the activities of all connected computers, one by one. The time interval allotted for each computer can be defined or adjusted through the IntelliView menu.

Direct-Access Port Selectors

These buttons, conveniently located on the front face of the Switch, allow for simple, manual port selection.

LED Display

An LED display on the front of the Switch serves as a status monitor. An LED above each direct-access port selector lights to indicate which console currently controls the corresponding computer. LEDs are color-coded to simplify the identification of each console.

Seven-Segment LED Display

In standalone mode, the seven-segment LEDs indicate the port that has been selected for each console. When daisy-chaining multiple Switches together, the seven-segment LED display indicates the BANK number. During the computer selection process, the seven-segment LEDs will briefly indicate the BANK that is being selected; this allows the user to select any computer directly from the front panel.

High-Density Computer Ports

The Switch features high-density, 50-pin, SCSI 2 connectors. These connectors allow your ENTERPRISE Quad-Bus Series KVM Switch to fit into a 1U-height, rack-mount case*.
