OSD Operation

OSD Overview

On Screen Display (OSD), provides a menu driven interface to handle the
computer switching procedure. All operations start from the OSD Main Menu.
To activate the Main Menu, tap either Ctrl key twice.

Note: 1. The keys must be on the same side (both left, or both right).

2. If using the Ctrl key conflicts with applications running on the

computers, you can optionally change the hotkey to the Scroll Lock
key (see OSD Activating Hotkey under the F6 Set function on
page 22), in which case you would press [Scroll Lock] twice.

For security purposes, the OSD incorporates a two level (Administrator / User)
password system. Before the OSD Main Screen comes up, a window appears
that asks you to provide your password. If the password function has been set
for the Console you are at, 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 is
not being used, simply press [Enter]. The OSD Main Screen comes up in
Administrator Mode. In this mode, you have administrator privileges, with
access to all User and Administrator functions, and can set up operations
(including password authorization for the future), as you would like.
