Selecting the Active Port
Each KVM port on the KL1116 installation is assigned a unique Port ID (see Port ID Numbering, page 26). You can bring the KVM focus to any computer on the installation with a Hotkey combination that specifies the Port ID of the KVM Port that it is connected to. The steps involved are:
1.Invoke HKM (see page 41).
2.Key in the computer's 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 computer associated with the specified Port ID, and you automatically exit Hotkey Mode.
