Osd Operation - IOGear GCS1716 Installation Manual

OSD Operation

OSD Overview
The On-Screen Display (OSD) is a mouse and keyboard enabled menu driven method to handle computer
control and switching operations. All procedures start from the OSD main screen.
OSD Login
The OSD incorporates a two level (administrator / user) password system. Before the OSD main screen
displays, a login screen appears requiring a password. If this is the first time that the OSD is used, or if the
password function has not been set, simply press [Enter]. The OSD main screen displays in administrator
mode. In this mode, you have administrator privileges with access to all administrator and user functions,
and can set up operations (including password authorization) as you like. If the password function has
been set, you must provide an appropriate administrator/user password in order to access the OSD.
OSD Hotkey
You can display the OSD on the console monitor while also viewing the display of any port on the
GCS1716 by pressing the [Scroll Lock] key twice.
Note: You can optionally change the OSD hotkey to the Ctrl key, in which case you would press [Ctrl]
twice. With this method, you must press the same [Ctrl] key.
