Port Operation

Select a port on the OSD Main screen either by moving the highlight bar to it with the up and down arrow keys and pressing [Enter], or by double-clicking it. Once you select a port, its screen displays on your monitor, and your keyboard and mouse input affects the remote system.

Note: 1. If you invoke the OSD while accessing a target device from the local console, press [F6] to hide the background and enlarge the OSD. Press [F6] again to show the background.

2.An administrator selects which ports are accessible to each user (see User Management, page 43 for details).

The OSD Toolbar

The OSD provides a toolbar to help you control the KH2508 / KH2516 from within the selected port. To bring up the toolbar, tap the OSD Hotkey (Scroll Lock or Ctrl) twice. The toolbar appears at the upper left corner of the screen:

Depending on the settings that were selected for ID Display (see page 41), the port number and/or the port name display at the right of the toolbar. The toolbar icons are described on page 37.

Note: When the toolbar displays, mouse input is confined to the toolbar area and keyboard input has no effect. To carry out operations on the computer connected to the port, you must exit the toolbar by either clicking the icon that closes the toolbar (see The Toolbar Icons, page 37), or by pressing [Esc] once.
