4.10 Selecting computers using the on-screen menu

You can conveniently select computers by name using the LINDY CPU Switch's on- screen menu. For systems with many computers this is the recommended method of computer selection. The on-screen menu is called up by pressing the ‘HOTKEYs’ and the ‘M’ key together. Its position on the screen may be moved using the 'HOTKEYs' and the cursor keys (see section 4.8)

For example, with the default hotkeys (CTRL + ALT) the key combination to launch the on-screen menu would be:

press baM release Mba

You may also use a 3-button mouse or wheel mouse to launch the on-screen menu if you have enabled mouse control (see section 3.6.7). To do this, hold down the central button or wheel button and click the right hand button.

Hold down centre button ( ). Press and release left hand button ( ) to launch the on-screen menu

When the menu is first called up, a set of default names will be listed. You will probably want to change these names to suit your computers (see section 3.5). When you launch the on-screen menu you will see a screen similar to that shown below.
