Chapter 4. Hotkey Mode

Auto Scanning

Auto Scan mode switches among all the ports that are accessible to the current operator at regular intervals (see Scan Mode, page 26, for information regarding accessible ports). This function is convenient for automatically monitoring the activity of the computers on the installation.

Setting the Scan Interval

The amount of time Auto Scan mode focuses on each port is set with the Scan Timer (see Set Scan on page 26). You can change the scan interval before activating Auto Scan mode, if you wish, with the following hotkey combination:

1.Invoke Hotkey mode (see page 31).

2.Key in [T] [n]

Where [T] is the letter T, and [n] is a number from 0–240 that represents the number of seconds for the dwell time.

The letter T and the numbers display on the command line as you key them in. If you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong number.

3.Press [Enter]

After you press [Enter], you automatically exit Hotkey mode, and are ready to invoke Auto Scanning.
