Invoking Hotkey Mode - ATEN Altusen KN9016 User Manual

Invoking Hotkey Mode

All Hotkey operations begin by invoking Hotkey Mode. Invoking Hotkey
Mode takes three steps:
1. Hold down the Num Lock key;
2. Press and release the minus key;
3. Release the Num Lock key:
[Num Lock] + [-];
Note: 1. The sequence uses the default hotkey invocation method. If you
selected the alternate hotkey invocation keys (see HOTKEY,
page 33), you would use [Ctrl] and [F12], instead.
2. The Minus (or F12) key must be released within one half second,
otherwise Hotkey invocation is automatically cancelled.
When Hotkey Mode is active:
The Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs flash in succession to indicate
Hotkey Mode is active. They stop flashing and revert to normal status
when you exit Hotkey Mode.
A Command Line appears on the monitor screen. The command line
prompt is the word Hotkey: in white text on a blue background, and
displays the subsequent Hotkey information that you key in.
Ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended – only Hotkey
compliant keystrokes (described in the sections that follow), can be input.
Pressing [Esc] exits Hotkey Mode.
