2.Press the [Enter] key. The selected computer is accessed.

4..1 Move Label (F1)

When a Target Server is accessed via the local console, a Confirmation Label appears briefly, displaying the port number and name of the Target Server being accessed. After a few seconds, the Confirmation Label disappears. You can position the Confirmation Label anywhere on the screen using the OSD’s MOVE LABEL (F1) function.

1.Open the OSD and highlight the desired computer using the [h] and [i] arrow keys.

2.Press the [F1] key. The selected port’s video and Confirmation Label appear.

3.Use the arrow keys to move the label to a desired position on the screen.

4.Press the [Esc] key to save the position and exit.

4..2 Tuning (F5)

You can tune the image of any Target Server using the OSD’s TUNING (F5) function.

1.Open the OSD and highlight the desired computer using the [h] and [i] arrow keys.

2.Press the [F5] key. The selected port’s video and the Image Tuning Label appears.
