Hotkey Port Access
Hotkey Port Access allows you to select which computer has the KVM focus
and/or which computer has access to the USB peripherals.
Note: CPU Port selection and USB Port assignment can be done
independently (asynchronously). One computer can have the KVM focus
while another has access to the USB peripherals.
The CS-1732 / CS-1734 provides the following Hotkey Port Access features:
M Selecting the Active Port
M Auto Scan Mode
M Skip Mode
M Selecting the Active Port:
CPU Port Selection with USB Access:
You can bring the KVM focus plus USB device access (synchronous
switching) to any computer with a hotkey combination that specifies its Port
ID (see p. 11 for Port ID details):
1. Invoke HKM (see p. 12).
2. Press and release the computer’s Port ID number (1, 2, 3, or 4).
3. Press [Enter].
The KVM focus and USB peripheral access switch to the computer
associated with that Port ID, and you automatically exit Hotkey Mode.
CPU Port Selection Only:
You can bring only the KVM focus (without changing the USB device access)
to any computer with the following hotkey combination:
1. Invoke HKM (see p. 12).
2. Press and release the K key
3. Press and release the computer’s Port ID number (1, 2, 3, or 4).
4. Press [Enter].
The KVM focus switches to the computer associated with that Port ID; the
USB peripheral access remains on the port where it was; and you
automatically exit Hotkey Mode.
