Hotkey Operation

The CS-1732

A

/ CS-1734

A

provides an extensive, easy-to-use, hotkey function that

makes it convenient to control and configure your KVM installation from the keyboard.
Hotkeys provide asynchronous (independent) switching of the KVM, USB hub and
audio focus. If you wish, you can give one computer the KVM console focus, another
the USB hub focus, while a third has the audio focus.

Port Switching

All port switches begin with tapping the Scroll Lock key twice. The tables below
describe the actions that each combination performs.

Note: If using the Scroll Lock key conflicts with other programs running on the

computer, the Ctrl key can be used, instead. See p. 16 for details.
