Starting Auto Scan:

To start Auto Scanning, key in the following Hotkey combination:

1.Invoke Hotkey Mode (see p. 15)

2.Key in [A]

After you press A, you automatically exit Hotkey Mode, and enter Auto Scan Mode.

3.To exit Auto Scan Mode, press [Esc] or [Spacebar]

Note: While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended - only Auto Scan Mode compliant keystrokes and mouse clicks can be input. You must exit Auto Scan Mode in order to regain normal control of the console.

While you are in Auto Scan Mode, you can pause the scanning in order to keep the focus on a particular computer by pressing P. During the time that Auto Scanning is paused, the Command Line displays: Auto Scan:

Paused.

Pausing when you want to keep the focus on a particular computer is more convenient than Exiting Auto Scan Mode because when you Resume scanning, you start from where you left off. If, on the other hand, you Exited and restarted, Scanning would start over from the very first computer on the installation.

After pausing, to resume Auto Scanning, press any key. Scanning continues from where it left off.
