Using Your SMB CAT5 KVM Switch Using Your SMB CAT5 KVM Switch
AutoScan Mode
The AutoScan feature allows you to set your SMB CAT5 KVM Switch to scan and
monitor the activities of all connected servers one by one. The SMB CAT5 KVM
Switch remains on one server for a preset number of seconds, before switching
to the next server. The time interval allotted for each server can be defined or
adjusted through the OSD menu (see the “Scan Time” section).
When the SMB CAT5 KVM Switch is in AutoScan mode, it is also in View-Only
mode. This means that input from the console (keyboard and mouse) will not
be transmitted to the server in focus. Cancel AutoScan to regain control of
the server.
To activate the AutoScan function, press the AutoScan button on the SMB
CAT5 KVM Switch. You can also activate AutoScan on your keyboard by
pressing “Scroll Lock”, “Scroll Lock”, space bar, “F4”.
To disable AutoScan, press any button on the front panel or any key on
the keyboard.
NOTE: There is no mouse or keyboard control in AutoScan mode. This is
necessary to prevent data and synchronization errors. If the user is using the
mouse or keyboard when the SMB CAT5 KVM Switch is switching between
ports, data flow may become interrupted and could result in erratic mouse
movement and/or wrong-character input when using the keyboard.
