OSD (On Screen Display) Operation

By hitting the left <CTRL> key twice within two seconds, you may see the ’Hotkey Menu’ if it is enabled (an OSD option). Or, by hitting the left <CTRL> key three times within two seconds, you will see a ’KVM MENU’ screen showing a list of the computers with corresponding channel addresses, names and status.

The channel address (port number) of the currently selected computer is displayed in red, same as the front indicator, to the right of the OSD title ’KVM MENU’.

The color of a device name is green if it has power and is ready for selection (its corresponding front panel indicator is green). The color is white if it has no power. The OSD menu updates when it is activated.

Use the <UP> and <DOWN> arrow keys to highlight a computer and the <ENTER> key to select it. Or, you may press <ESCAPE> to exit OSD and remove the OSD menu from the display; the status window returns to the display and indicates the currently selected computer or operating status.
