THE COMMAND MENU

If you are operating in non-secure mode or if you are the system administrator, you will have several options that do not appear in the User level Command Menu: Channel Maintenance, Administrator Functions and Sequential Scan Dwell Time. Channel Maintenance and Administrator Functions are both covered in separate sections in this chapter. Scanning is covered in Chapter 5.

If you experience a loss of mouse signal while using the APC KVM Switch, select the ÒReset Standard Mouse/KeyboardÓ option from this menu for a server with a standard mouse driver or ÒReset Wheel Mouse/ KeyboardÓ if you are using a computer with a Microsoft IntelliMouse 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 ÒSystem Control & MaintenanceÓ section of this manual.

Choose the option ÒVersion InformationÓ to display on your monitor the current version level of your OSD firmware. Press the Esc key to clear this information from your screen.
