OSD Operation

OSD Overview

On Screen Display (OSD) provides a menu driven interface to handle the PC switching
procedure. Although Hotkey Port Selection still works, using OSD is more convenient -
especially in large, cascaded installations where a great number of PCs are connected to
several LINDY CPU Switch units and it is difficult to keep track of which port a particular PC is
attached to.
All operations start from the OSD Main Menu. To pop up the Main Menu, press a Ctrl key twice.
Note: You can optionally change the hotkey to the Scroll Lock key (see F6, below), in which
case you would press [Scroll Lock] [Scroll Lock].
