Powering Off and Restarting The KVM is self-powered in that it is powered by connections to the CCIR-17 and the connected computers. To turn the KVM off, it is necessary to remove all external power coming through the connected cables. If it becomes necessary to power off the KVM, before starting it back up, you must do the following.
3. To exit Auto Scan Mode, Press the [ESC] key or the [SPACEBAR]. Hotkey Setting Mode (HSM) Hotkey Setting Mode is used to set up the CCIR-17 KVM configuration. All operations begin with invoking the Hotkey Setting Mode (HSM). Invoking HSM To invoke HSM, do the following: 1.
Chassis Plans CCIR -17 Technical Reference Chapter 8 – KVM Programming Alternate HSM Invocation Keys An alternate set of HSM invocation keys is provided in case the default set conflicts with programs running on the computers. To switch to the alternate HSM invocation set, do the following: 1.
Keyboard Operating System Platform The CCIR-17 KVM’s default port configuration is for PC compatible keyboard operating system. If your console uses a PC compatible keyboard and you have a MAC attached to a port, for example, you can change the port’s keyboard operating platform configuration so that the PC compatible keyboard emulates the MAC keyboard.
