OSD Functions

OSD functions are used to configure and control the OSD. For example, you can: rapidly switch to any port; scan selected ports only; limit the list you wish to view; designate a port for Quick View scanning; create or edit a port name; or make OSD setting adjustments.

To access an OSD function:

1.Either Click a Function Key field on the screen, or press a Function Key on the keyboard.

2.In the Submenus that appear make your choice either by Double Clicking it, or moving the Highlight Bar to it.

3.Press [Esc] to activate your choice and return to the previous menu level.

F1: HELP

Help provides a quick guide to OSD operation. To return to the OSD Main Menu, Click the X at the upper right corner of the OSD Window; or press [Esc].

F2: EDIT

This is an Administrator function. To help remember which computer is attached to a particular port, every port can be given a name. The Edit function allows the Administrator to create, modify, or delete port names. To Edit a port name:

1.Click the port you want, or use the Navigation Keys to move the highlight bar to it.

2.Click the F2 field, or Press [F2].

3.Key in the new Port Name, or modify/delete the old one.

The maximum number of characters allowed for the Port Name is 15. Legal characters include:

ŠAll alpha characters: a - z; A - Z

ŠAll numeric characters: 0 - 9

Š+, , /, ., and [Space]

Case does not matter; OSD displays the Port Name in all capitals no matter how they were keyed in.

4.When you have finished editing, press [Enter] to have the change take effect. To abort the change, press [Esc].
