Resetting the keyboard and mouse
If the keyboard or mouse is not responding, you might be able to re-establish operation of these
peripheral devices by issuing a Reset command for the mouse and keyboard settings on the target
device. The Reset command sends a hot-plug sequence to the target device, which causes the
mouse and keyboard settings to be sent to the appliance. With communication re-established
between the target device and the appliance, functionality is restored to the user. This function is
for Microsoft Windows-based computers only. Resetting the keyboard and mouse on a target
device running any other operating system might require that you reboot that target device.
To reset the mouse and keyboard values, complete the following steps:
1.
Start the OSCAR interface.
2.
Click Commands > Display Versions > CO. Select the CO cable connected to the mouse and
keyboard that need to be reset from the list.
3.
Click Version > Reset.
4.
A message is displayed stating that the mouse and keyboard are reset.
5.
Complete one of the following steps:
•
Click OK to close the message field.
•
Click X or press Escape to exit without sending a Reset command to the mouse
and keyboard.
Scanning the switching system
In scan mode, the appliance automatically scans from port to port (target device to target device).
Use scan mode to monitor the activity of up to 16 target devices, and to specify which target
devices to scan and the number of seconds that each target device will be visible. The scanning
order is determined by placement of the target device in the list, which is always shown in scanning
order. You can choose to list the target devices by name, eID number, or port number by clicking
the corresponding button.
To add target devices to the scan list, complete the following steps:
1.
Start the OSCAR interface.
2.
Click Setup > Scan. The Scan window opens.
