Selecting the Active Port
Each KVM port is assigned a unique port ID (see Port ID Numbering ,
page 28). You can directly access any computer on the installation with a
Hotkey combination that specifies the port ID of the KVM port that the
computer is connected to. To access a computer using Hotkeys, do the
following:
1. Invoke Hotkey mode (see page 46).
2. Key in the port ID.
The port ID numbers display on the command line as you key them in. If
you make a mistake, use
[Backspace] to erase the error.
3. Press [Enter] .
After you press [Enter], the KVM focus switches to the designated
computer and you automatically exit Hotkey mode.
Note: In Hotkey mode, the KVM focus does not switch to a port if an
invalid switch or port number is entered. The Hotkey command line
continues to display on the screen until you either enter a valid
switch and port number combination, or exit Hotkey mode.
