USER ACCESS FUNCTIONS
Introduction
The OSD menu enables a user to name the CPUs connected to the UNIMUX and connect to them using that name from a single
keyboard and mouse. The OSD is positioned on the user's monitor, displaying 8 CPU names at a time. The screen can be used
for switching as well as editing the CPUs’ names.
Through the OSD menu, the user can operate the UNIMUX to have the switch
cycle through 3 extended modes of operation: COMMAND, BROADCAST, and SCAN . Three LEDs on the front panel indicate
when these modes are enabled.
OSD Command Mode
When entering the Command Mode from the keyboard using the <
Ctrl > + < ` > (accent key), the OSD menu will automatically
appear on the monitor in addition to illuminating the COMMAND indicator LED on the USB KVM switch. This provides a visual
way to control the UNIMUX.
