SwitchView User Manual Scanning PCs The scanning feature allows you to automatically moni- tor, or scan, each PC in your SwitchView system. If you use the keyboard during scanning, the scan will pause until you finish, then resume with the next PC. The length of time each PC’s video remains on the screen, or dwell time, can be changed at any time.
Power down the computer. Connect the monitor directly to the computer and power up again. If the monitor does not operate correctly direct to the computer, try another monitor. Verify that the cables from the computer to the Switch- View are connected properly.
