Selecting the Active Port

Each Computer Port is assigned a Port ID (see Port ID Numbering, page 19).
You can directly access any computer on the installation with a Hotkey
combination that specifies the Port ID of the Computer Port that the computer
is connected to. The steps involved are:

1. Invoke Hotkey Mode (see page 35).

2. Key in the Port ID

The Port ID numbers display on the Command Line as you key them in. If
you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong number.

3. Press [Enter]

After you press [Enter], the KVM focus switches to the designated
computer and you automatically exit Hotkey Mode.

Auto Scanning

Auto Scan automatically switches among all the active Computer Ports that are
accessible to the currently logged on User at regular intervals, so that he can
monitor their activity automatically. (See SCAN/SKIP MODE of the OSD F3
SET
function, page 27 for information regarding accessible ports).

Setting the Scan Interval

The amount of time Auto Scan dwells on each port is set with the SCAN
DURATION
set
ting of the OSD F3 SET function (see page 27). You can
change the scan interval before activating Hotkey Auto Scanning, if you wish,
with the following Hotkey combination:

1. Invoke Hotkey Mode (see page 35).

2. Key in [T] [n]

Where [T] is the letter T, and [n] is a number from 1-255 that represents
the number of seconds for the dwell time.

The letter T and the numbers display on the Command Line as you key
them in. If you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong
number.

3. Press [Enter]

After you press [Enter], you automatically exit Hotkey Mode, and are
ready to invoke Auto Scanning.
