Clicking the Panel Array icon on the OSD Toolbar or Control Panel invokes Panel Array Mode. Under this mode, the OSD divides your screen into a grid of panels:

Panel Array Toolbar

•Each panel represents one B064-Series KVM Switch’s ports, beginning with Port 1 at the upper left and continuing from left to right and top to bottom.

•When the Array is first invoked, it scans through each of the ports that were selected for Auto Scanning in the Port Select and Filter functions, and displays information about the port (port name, resolution, online status, port access status), at the bottom of the panel.

Note: The Panel Array scans at one-second intervals. The scan interval is not user definable.

•The number of panels in the array can be increased or decreased by clicking the Show More Ports or Show Fewer Ports icons on the panel array toolbar.

•If the computer connected to a port is on line, its screen displays in the panel. If not, the panel remains blank.

•Only ports that are accessible to the currently logged in user are displayed. For ports that are not accessible, the panel is blank.

•If you move the mouse pointer over a panel, information about the port displays at the bottom of the panel.

•You can access a computer/server connected to a port by moving the mouse pointer over its panel and double-clicking. This will switch you to the computer exactly as if you had selected it from the OSD Main screen.

The Panel Array Toolbar provides shortcut navigation and control of the panel array. The icons in the Panel Array Toolbar are described below:
