Using your LCD Rack Console

AutoScan Mode

The AutoScan feature allows you to set your LCD Rack Console to scan and monitor the activities of all connected servers one by one. The LCD Rack Console remains on one server for a preset number of seconds, before switching to the next server. The time interval allotted for each server can be adjusted through the OSD menu (see the “AutoScan Time” section).

When the LCD Rack Console is in AutoScan mode, it is also in view-only mode. This means that input from the console (keyboard and mouse) will not be transmitted to the server in focus. Cancel AutoScan to regain control of

the server.

To activate the AutoScan function, press “Scroll Lock”, “Scroll Lock”, “A”. To stop AutoScan, press any key on the keyboard.

Note: There is no mouse or keyboard control in AutoScan mode. This is necessary to prevent data and synchronization errors. If the user is using the mouse or keyboard when the LCD Rack Console is switching between ports, data flow may become interrupted and could result in erratic mouse movement and/or wrong-character input when using the keyboard.

On-Screen Display (OSD)

The OSD allows you to switch servers, assign names to your servers, start and stop the AutoScan feature, set the desired scan-time interval for AutoScan, enable the password security feature, and program hot keys. To access the OSD menu, press “Scroll Lock”, “Scroll Lock”, and the space bar. Immediately, the OSD screen will appear. The superimposed menu screen is generated by the LCD Rack Console, and does not affect the function of your server, operating system, or software function.
