3.6.10 AUTOSCAN MODE

Accessed from menu: GLOBAL PREFERENCES

Settings: SCAN LIST, ACTIVE PCs, ALL PCs

The AdderView supports an autoscan mode that automatically scans between the connected computers in sequence. The AdderView supports three autoscan modes. In the first mode the AdderView will scan all the named computers that are defined in the autoscan list (SCAN LIST). The computers defined in the scan list may be connected to cascaded AdderViews. If you wish to scan the ports on the current AdderView then you may select ALL the available computers or just the available computers that are currently powered on (the ACTIVE computers). Scanning just the active computers avoids blank screens from being displayed and stops the monitor from going into a power down state on every scan cycle.

WARNING - Many modern monitors are fitted with automatic power save relays and will switch off after a few seconds if connected to an inactive PC. If you are using such a monitor you must not set the AdderView to scan ALL ports. Constant switching on and off of your monitor's relay will eventually damage your monitor. If you are using the SCAN LIST option then you should ensure that all the computers are active if you are using one of these monitors.

If you choose to use the SCAN LIST option then you may define the computers to be scanned in the following manner.
