Hotkey Operation
Hotkey Port Control
Hotkey port control allows you to provide KVM focus to a particular KVM
port directly from the keyboard.
Note: Hotkeys work best in single level and basic cascaded or daisy-chained
installations. For installations that combine daisy chaining and
cascading, it is simpler, more convenient, and more efficient to use the
OSD.
The KM0832 provides the following hotkey port control features:
Š Port switching
Š Auto scanning
Š Skip mode switching
Invoking Hotkey Mode
