Selecting the Active Port

Each Computer Port is assigned a Port ID (see Port ID Numbering, p. 17). You can directly access any computer on the installation with a Hotkey combination that specifies the Port ID of the Computer Port that the computer is connected to. The steps involved are:

1.Invoke Hotkey Mode (see p. 35).

2.Key in the Port ID

The Port ID 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], the KVM focus switches to the designated computer and you automatically exit Hotkey Mode.

Auto Scanning

Auto Scan automatically switches among all the active Computer Ports that are accessible to the currently logged on User at regular intervals, so that he can monitor their activity automatically. (See Scan/Skip Mode of the OSD F3 SET function, p. 24 for information regarding accessible ports).

Setting the Scan Interval

The amount of time Auto Scan dwells on each port is set with the Scan Duration setting of the OSD F3 SET function (see p. 24). You can change the scan interval before activating Hotkey Auto Scanning, if you wish, with the following Hotkey combination:

1.Invoke Hotkey Mode (see p. 35).

2.Key in [T] [n]

Where [T] is the letter T, and [n] is a number from 1-255 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.
