OSD Operation

OSD Overview

The On Screen Display (OSD) is used to handle all computer control and
switching procedures. All procedures start from the OSD Main Menu. To pop up
the Main Menu, tap the [Scroll Lock] key twice.

Note: You can optionally change the Hotkey to the Ctrl key (see OSD Hotkey,

p. 20), in which case you would tap [Ctrl] twice. With this method, the
[Ctrl] keys must be on the same side (both left, or both right).

The OSD incorporates a two level (Administrator / User) password system. Before
the OSD Main Screen comes up, a dialog box appears that asks you to provide
your password. If the password function has been set, you must provide the
password in order to access the OSD Main Screen.

If this is the first time that the OSD is being run, or if the password function has
not been set, simply press [Enter]. The OSD Main Screen comes up in
Administrator Mode. In this mode, you have administrator privileges, with
access to all Administrator and User functions, and can set up operations
(including password authorization for the future), as you would like.

When you invoke the OSD, a screen similar to the one below appears:

Note: 1. The diagram depicts the Administrator’s Main Screen. The User Main

Screen does not show the F4 and F6 functions, since these are reserved
for the Administrator and can’t be accessed by ordinary Users.

2. OSD always starts in List view, with the highlight bar at the same

position it was in the last time it was closed.

3. Only the ports that have been set accessible by the Administrator for

the currently logged in User are visible (see SET ACCESSIBLE
PORTS
, p. 24, for details).
