after a fixed interval. To invoke Skip Mode, key in the following Hotkey
combination:

M Where [Arrow] refers to one of the Arrow keys. After you
press [Arrow], you automatically exit Hotkey Mode, and enter
Skip Mode where you can switch ports as follows:
← Skips from the current port to the first accessible port
previous to it. (See Scan/Skip Mode, p. 4-7, for
information regarding accessible ports.)
→ Skips from the current port to the next accessible port.
↑ Skips from the current port to the last accessible port
of the previous Station.
↓ Skips from the current port to the first accessible port
of the next Station.
M Once you are in Skip Mode, you can keep on skipping by
pressing the Arrow keys. You don’t have to use the
[NumLock] + [-] combination again.

functions are suspended - only Skip Mode compliant
keystrokes can be input. You must exit Skip Mode in order to
regain normal control of the console.
