A triangle mark (p) to the right of a name indicates the port is cascaded to a Slave; the number at the left of the triangle mark shows the number of ports the Slave has, i.e. 8 for an 8-port switch. The <ENTER> key brings you one level down and another screen pops up listing the names of the computers on that Slave. The name of the Slave will be shown at the upper right corner of the OSD menu. It is useful to group computers and still be able to see the group name.

An eye mark (N) to the right of a name indicates that the computer is selected to be monitored in Scan mode. In OSD, this mark can be switched on or off by function key <F2>. Press the <ESCAPE> key to exit OSD

and to return to the selected computer; the computer name is also shown on the screen.
