CS72D / CS74D User Manual

Alternate Hotkey Setting Mode

The port switching activation keys can be changed from tapping the Scroll Lock key twice ([Scroll Lock] [Scroll Lock]) to tapping the Ctrl key twice ([Ctrl] [Ctrl]). To change the port switching activation keys, do the following:

1.Invoke HSM (see page 13).

2.Press [X] or [x] [Enter].

Note: This procedure is a toggle between the two methods. To revert back to the original [Scroll Lock] [Scroll Lock] method, invoke HSM, then press and release the X key again.

Auto Scanning

The CS72D / CS74D’s Auto Scan feature automatically cycles the KVM focus through the computer ports at regular intervals. This allows you to monitor the computer activity without having to take the trouble of switching from port to port manually. Although the video focus switches from port to port, the keyboard, mouse, and USB focus doesn’t switch. They stay at the port they were on when Auto Scanning started. See the table below for details. .
