CS-88A User Manual
Selecting the Active Port
Each KVM port is assigned a Port ID (see Port ID Numbering, page 18). 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.
The steps involved are:
1. Invoke Hotkey Mode with the [Num Lock] + [*] or [Num Lock] + [-]
combination.
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 wrong number.
3. Press [Enter]
After you press [Enter], the KVM focus switches to the designated
computer and you automatically exit Hotkey Mode.
Auto Scanning
Auto Scan automatically switches among all the active KVM Ports that are
accessible to the currently logged on User at regular intervals, so that their
activity can be monitored automatically. (See Scan Mode of the OSD F3 SET
function, page 24 for information regarding accessible ports).
Setting the Scan Interval:
The amount of time Auto Scan dwells on each port is set with the Scan
Duration setting of the OSD F3 SET function (page 24). You can change the
scan interval before activating Hotkey Auto Scanning with the following
Hotkey combination:
1. Invoke Hotkey Mode with the [Num Lock] + [*] or [Num Lock] + [-]
combination
2. Key in [T] [n]
Where [T] is the letter T, and [n] is a number from 1–255 that represents
the number of seconds for the dwell time.
The letter T, and the numbers display on the Command Line as you key
them in. If you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong
number.
3. Press [Enter]
After you press [Enter], you automatically exit Hotkey Mode, and are
ready to invoke Auto Scanning.
