Skip Mode

This feature allows you to switch between computers in order to monitor them
manually. You can dwell on a particular port for as long or as little as you
like—as opposed to Auto Scanning, which automatically switches after a fixed
interval. To invoke Skip Mode, key in the following Hotkey combination:
1. Invoke Hotkey Mode (see page 45).
2. Key in [Arrow]
Where [Arrow] refers to one of the Arrow keys. After you press
[Arrow], you automatically exit Hotkey Mode, and enter Skip Mode
where you can switch ports as follows:
←
Skips from the current port to the first accessible port previous to it.
(See SCAN/SKIP MODE, page 35, for information regarding
accessible ports.)
→
Skips from the current port to the next accessible port.
↑
Skips from the current port to the last accessible port of the previous
Station.
↓
Skips from the current port to the first accessible port of the next
Station.
Once you are in Skip Mode, you can keep on skipping by pressing the Arrow
keys. You don't have to use the [NumLock] + [-] combination again.
While Skip Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are
suspended - only Skip Mode compliant keystrokes can be input. You must exit
Skip Mode in order to regain normal control of the console.
To exit Skip Mode, press [Esc] or [Spacebar].
