NTI UNIMUX SERIES USB KVM SWITCH

18

Scan Mode
To activate Scan Mode press <Ctrl> + <S> from the Command Mode menu.
When in Scan Mode the switch scans to each port with a CPU powered-ON. (The SCAN LED on the front panel will illuminate and
remain ON while in Scan Mode.) The port with the CPU powered-ON remains active while in use until it becomes idle for the
configured dwell time (default time-out period is 5 seconds) before switching to the next powered-ON CPU port. See Command
Mode section above for configuring the scan dwell time.
Note: The keyboard and mouse must remain idle for the full scan dwell time before the switch selects the next active
port.

Note: The scan dwell time set by the user only effects that user and has no effect on other switch users.
Normal Mode
When the UNIMUX is not in Command, Broadcast, or Scan mode and all of the UNIMUX mode LEDs are OFF, the user is in
Normal Mode, controlling the CPU to which the user is connected through the USB KVM switch.
Edit Mode
Note: Edit Mode will only be accessible if the administrator is logged in.
To activate Edit Mode press <Ctrl> + <E> from the Command Mode menu.
Edit Mode enables the administrator to modify the names of the CPUs connected to the switch. Names of CPUs can be up to 12
characters in length. Use the <Shift> key to introduce capital letters (the <Capslock> does not work in OSD).
