Operation; Hot Key Selection - ATEN Master View CS-102 User Manual

Operation

There are two ways to access any computer on the installation: by pressing the front panel SELECT BUTTON, or by
entering Hot Keys from the keyboard. Once a computer has been accessed, the CPU Switch directs keyboard control, mouse
control, and video image of that computer to you as if the computer were right next to you.
Front Panel Button Selection
To select a computer with this method, simply press the front panel SELECT BUTTON of the CPU Switch it connects to
several times. When it is selected, the corresponding LED turns on to indicate so.
For a two stage installation, you have to select with both CPU Switches; for a three stage installation, you have to select
with all three CPU Switches.
The SELECT LED turns on when the SELECT BUTTON is pressed.

Hot Key Selection

Hot Keys are entered by pressing and releasing Alt, Ctrl, and Shift keys simultaneously, followed by the command key(s),
and end with pressing the Enter key.
