Search Mode

Search mode allows the user to enter and maneuver through a list of CPU names. The best matching CPU name is selected. The list of CPUs may also be searched for a specific (or similar) name. To enter SEARCH Mode, simply begin typing alphanumeric characters. The following commands are valid when the search option has been invoked from Command mode.

Key

Backspace

Alphanumeric

Esc

Enter

Function

Select previous port on OSD display

Select next port on OSD display

Add a character to the search string and select the best matching CPU name

Exit SEARCH mode, return to COMMAND mode

Switch to selected port

Maintenance Mode

Maintenance mode (press <Ctrl> - <M> from Command Mode menu) allows a user to customize the On Screen Display to their requirements (see Figure 13 on page 19). Also, the share feature is turned OFF or ON from Maintenance Mode. The OSD default for sharing is ON. In this mode, any user can access any CPU at any time (even share one). When sharing is disabled, no one but the selected user can access that CPU. When sharing is enabled, and more than one person is attached to a CPU, it is displayed on the main COMMAND Menu. The number that displays which user is connected to which port changes color (from white to red), and the number shows how many users are connected to that particular port. The following commands are valid from within Maintenance mode.

FYI: Based on different scan rates, the OSD window may appear in different areas of the monitor as different CPU ports are selected. The Maintenance Mode functions allow placement of the window in a particular area of the monitor and it will stay there when switched back to that particular CPU (as long as the parameters are saved before exiting).
