Port Operation

Once you select a port on the OSD Main Screen its screen comes up on your
monitor, and your keyboard and mouse input affects the remote system.

Note: The administrator selects which ports are accessible to each user with

the User Management function (see page 65 for details).

The OSD Toolbar

The OSD provides a toolbar to help you control the KH1508i / KH1516i from
within the captured port. To bring up the toolbar, tap the OSD Hotkey twice
(Scroll Lock is the default OSD Hotkey). The toolbar appears at the upper left
corner of the screen:

Š Depending on the settings that were selected under ID Display (see The

Configuration Page, page 83), the Port Number and/or the Port Name
display at the right of the toolbar.

Š When the toolbar displays, mouse input is confined to the toolbar area.
Š Keyboard input has no effect on the computer connected to the port. To

carry out operations on the computer connected to the port, close the
toolbar by clicking the X on it, or by pressing [Esc]. You can also recall
the OSD (see below), and select the port again.

Š While keyboard input has no effect on the computer connected to the port,

you can use the keyboard to perform the following port operation
functions, however:
Š Skip Mode port switching – see Skip Mode, page 113 for details.
Š Auto Scanning – see Invoking Auto Scan, page 112 for details.

Recalling the OSD

To dismiss the toolbar and bring back the OSD display (the Main,
Configuration, and Administration pages), do one of the following:

Š Tap the OSD Hotkey once;
Š From the toolbar click the icon that brings up the OSD (see page 108).

The OSD Toolbar closes, and the main OSD display reappears.
