5. Hotkey Operation

Invoking Auto Scan:

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

1.Invoke HKM (see p. 43).

2.Press [A].

When you press A, you automatically exit HKM; enter Auto Scan Mode; and Auto Scanning begins.

ŠWhile you are in Auto Scan Mode, you can pause the scanning in order to keep the focus on a particular computer either by pressing P or with a Left Click of the mouse. 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 you Exit Auto Scan Mode, on the other hand, when you restart scanning, you start over from the beginning with the very first computer on the installation.

To resume Auto Scanning after Pausing, press any key or Left Click. Scanning continues from where it left off.

ŠWhile 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.

3.To exit Auto Scan Mode press [Esc] or [Spacebar]. Auto Scanning stops when you exit Auto Scan Mode.
