The settings are explained in the following table:
Setting | Function |
OSD HOTKEY | Selects which Hotkey activates the OSD function: |
| [Scroll Lock] [Scroll Lock] or [Ctrl] [Ctrl]. |
| Since the Ctrl key combination may conflict with programs running on the |
| computers, the default is the Scroll Lock combination. |
PORT ID | Allows you to position where the Port ID appears on the monitor. |
DISPLAY POSITION | The default is the upper left corner, but you can have it appear anywhere on |
| the screen. |

| then Double Click or press [Enter] to lock the position and return to the Set |
| submenu. |
PORT ID | Determines how long a Port ID displays on the monitor after a port |

| Port ID at all times. If you select User Defined, key in the number of seconds, |
| then press [Enter]. |
| The default is 3 Seconds. A setting of 0 (zero) disables this function. |

| Default is 5 seconds; a setting of 0 disables the Scan function. |
