4. Hotkey Operation

Hotkey Setting Mode

Hotkey Setting Mode is used to set up your CS-1762 / CS-1764 switch configuration. All operations begin with invoking Hotkey Setting Mode (HSM).

Invoking HSM

To invoke HSM do the following:

1.Press and hold down the Num Lock key

2.Press and release the minus key

3.Release the Num Lock key

Note: 1. There is an alternate key combination to invoke HSM. See below for details.

2.The minus key must be released within one half second, otherwise Hotkey invocation is canceled.

When HSM is active, the Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs flash in succession to indicate that HSM is in effect. They stop flashing and revert to normal status when you exit HSM.

Ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended - only Hotkey compliant keystrokes and mouse clicks (described in the sections that follow), can be input.

At the conclusion of some hotkey operations, you automatically exit hotkey mode. With some operations, you must exit manually. To exit HSM manually, press the Esc key, or the Spacebar.
