THE COMMAND MENU

If you are operating in non-secure mode or are the system administrator, you will have several options that do not appear in the User level Command Menu: Add Channel, Edit Channel, Delete Channel and Administrator Functions are all covered in separate sections in this chapter. Scanning is covered in Chapter 6.

If you experience a loss of mouse signal while using the APC KVM Switch, select the ‘Reset PS/2 Standard Mse/Kbd’ option from this menu for a PC with a standard mouse driver or ‘Reset PS/2 Wheel Mse/Kbd’ if you are using a PC with a Microsoft IntelliMouse or other wheel mouse driver. This will reset and in most cases restore your mouse signal. These commands are equivalent to the <CM>MR<Enter> and <CM>MW<Enter> keyboard command listed in the ‘System Control & Maintenance’ section of this manual.

Choose the option ‘Version Information’ to display on your monitor the current version level of your APC KVM Switch ﬁrmware. Press the Esc key to clear this information from your screen.
