Auto Scanning

The CS1942DP / CS1944DP’s Auto Scan feature automatically cycles the
KVM focus through the computer ports at regular intervals. This allows you to
monitor the computer activity without having to take the trouble of switching
from port to port manually. See the table below for details.

Note:

1. The

n

stands for the number of seconds that the CS1942DP /

CS1944DP should dwell on a port before moving on to the next.
Replace the

n

with a number between 1 and 99 when entering this

Hotkey combination.

2. While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse

functions are suspended – only Auto Scan Mode compliant
keystrokes and mouse clicks can be input. You must exit Auto Scan
Mode in order to regain normal control of the console.

3. Although the video focus switches from port to port, the audio and

USB focus do not switch. They stay at the port they were on when
Auto Scanning started.
