REMOTE UNIT CONFIGURATION & OPERATION
Hot Key Commands
After pressing the initial ‘hot’ key on the remote keyboard, you can issue a number of commands by pressing additional keys. These commands allow you to start a private mode session on the remote console or to reset the keyboard and mouse.

Audio/Serial Local Units that feature dual access allow the remote user to lock out the local console by triggering a ‘Private Mode’ function. This prevents the local console from being used even if a two second inactivity timeout period expires.
During a Private Mode session, the extender system:
•Flashes the Scroll Lock LED on the remote keyboard.
•Illuminates all three LEDs on the local keyboard.
•Displays a blank image on the local console’s monitor.
•Locks the local console’s keyboard and mouse.
