SELECT key
Not
compatible
An optional remote controller is also available
which replicates the SELECT key and
display, but can be located remotely from the
LINDY CPU Switch. This is particularly useful
in applications where the LINDY CPU Switch
is located away from the desktop. The
remote controller can be conveniently
attached to your keyboard with a couple of
Velcro strips to give instant channel
information and key control.

The AUTO key puts the LINDY CPU Switch into auto-scan
mode. The ports scanned and the scan time can be selected
by options L and T in configure mode (see section 4.4).

Pressing the AUTO and SELECT keys together will cause
the LINDY CPU Switch to select channel 0 and disable all
video output. If a security password has been set then the
LINDY CPU Switch will lock, display P and wait for the
password to be entered before unlocking the LINDY CPU
Switch.

After 5 seconds the LINDY CPU Switch’s display will blank
and power to the shared keyboards and mice will be switched
off causing a complete reset of these devices. After several
further seconds the power will be re-applied and normal
operation is resumed. This reset function does not reset the
computer connections to the LINDY CPU Switch.
