F5: SKP

Clicking the F5 field or pressing [F5] invokes Skip mode. This function enables you to easily skip backward or forward – switching the console focus from the currently active computer port to the previous or next available one.

ŠThe selection of computers to be available for skip mode switching is made with the Scan–Skipmode setting under the F3: SET function (see page 36).

ŠWhen you are in skip mode:

press [ ← ] to switch to the previous computer in the list press [ → ] to switch to the next computer in the list

press [ ↑ ] to switch to the last computer on the previous station in the list press [ ↓ ] to switch to the first computer on the next station in the list.

Note: When you skip, you only skip to the previous or next available computer that is in the Scan–Skipmode selection (page 37).

ŠIf a port has been selected for Scan–Skipmode, when the focus switches to that port a left/right triangle symbol appears before its port ID display.

ŠWhile skip mode is in effect, the console will not function normally. You must exit skip mode in order to regain control of the console.

ŠTo exit skip mode, press [Spacebar] or [Esc].
