Hotkey Setting Mode

Keyboard Operating Platform

The CS-1772 / CS-1774’s default port configuration is for a PC Compatible keyboard operating platform. If your requirements call for different port settings (you have a Mac or Sun attached to a port, e.g.), you can change a port’s keyboard operating platform configuration as follows:

1.Bring the KVM focus to the port you want to set.

2.Invoke HSM (see p. 17)

3.Press and release the appropriate Function key (see table). After completing a setting, you automatically exit HSM.
