Avocent Eletric Keyboard - Manual (Page 10)

Built-in scanning capabilities
A built-in scanning feature allows you to automatically monitor, or scan, con-
nected computers without intervention. When keyboard activity is detected,
scanning is suspended until all activity stops. Scanning then resumes with the
next channel in sequence. You can switch computer channels in one of two
ways: via the Select button or with a simple keyboard sequence.
Indicator LEDs give you constant readings on the status of your SwitchView
MP unit. Status and channel LEDs take the guesswork out of system operation
and diagnostics.
