Hotkey Operation
Hotkeys allow you to provide KVM focus to a port directly from the
keyboard. The KN2018 / KN2116 provides the following hotkey features:
MAuto Scanning
MSkip Mode Switching
The hotkeys are: A and P for Auto Scanning; and the Arrow Keys for Skip Mode.
Note: In order for hotkey operations to take place, the toolbar must be
visible (see Port Operation, p 45). To use the hotkey keys for normal
purposes, close the toolbar.
Auto Scanning:
The Auto Scan function automatically switches among all the ports that are
accessible to the currently logged on User at regular intervals, so that he can
monitor their activity automatically. (See Scan Select, p. 60 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 (see p. 60).
Invoking Auto Scan:
To start Auto Scanning, tap the A key. The Auto Scan function cycles
through the ports in order - starting from the first port on the installation. An
S appears in front of the Port ID Display to indicate that the port is being
accessed under Auto Scan Mode.
