Auto Switch Commands - ATEN VS0801A User Manual

Auto Switch Commands

The Auto Switch command places priority on a port, so that when a source is
connected to that port the VS0801A will automatically switch to it. There are
two types of auto switching- Auto: switch priority is placed on a particular
port, and Next: switch priority is placed on the next port that has a new source
device connected to it. By default, Auto Switch is disabled. For more detailed
descriptions of Auto Switch modes, see Auto Switch, page 17.
The formulas for Auto Switch commands are as follows:
1. Switch Command + Input Command + Port Number + Control [Enter]
For example, to enable auto switching for port 02, type the following:
swmode i02 auto [Enter]
2. Switch Command + Control [Enter]
For example, to enable the auto switch next mode, type the following:
swmode next [Enter]
3. Switch Command + Control [Enter]
For example, to turn auto switching off, type the following:
swmode default [Enter]
The following tables show the possible values for the Auto Switch, Input,
