Operation Modes

The OSCAR user interface provides convenient operation modes for easy system administration of the Remote Console Switch. These modes (Broadcast, Scan, Switch, and Share) allow you to manage your switching activities. Chapter 3, "Controlling Your System at the Analog Ports" on page 36, explains these modes in detail.
