MAuto Scan Mode

The CS-1732 / CS-1734’s Auto Scan feature automatically cycles through the computer ports at regular 5 second intervals. This allows you to monitor the computer activity without having to take the trouble of switching from port to port manually. To start Auto Scan Mode:

1.Invoke HKM (see p. 12)

2.Press and release the A key

Once scanning begins, it continues until you press [Esc] or [Spacebar] to exit Auto Scan Mode. The Port that is active at the time scanning stops remains active.

Note: 1. While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended. You must exit Auto Scan Mode by pressing [Esc] or [Spacebar] in order to regain normal control of their use.

2.Pressing [Esc] or [Spacebar] exits both Auto Scan Mode and Hotkey Mode.

MSkip Mode

Skip Mode is a shortcut method for port switching. It allows you to hotkey switch the KVM focus and USB peripheral access from the port that currently has the KVM focus to the next port on the installation (1 to 2; 2 to 1 for the CS-1732; 1 to 2; 2 to 3; 3 to 4; 4 to 1 for the CS-1734), without having to invoke Hotkey Mode.

To perform a skip, tap the Scroll Lock key twice. When you do this, two port switching changes occur:

M The KVM focus switches from its current port, to the next port.

M The USB focus switches to the port with the new KVM focus so that they are both synchronized.

After the port switching takes place, you automatically exit Hotkey Mode.

Note: The Skip Mode activation key can be changed to the Ctrl key (see p. 15 for details).
