! F7 BRDCST (Broadcast Mode):
Broadcast Mode is used to perform the same operation on all active
computers at the same time. This function is particularly useful for
installing/updating software, or shutting the entire installation down. To
invoke Broadcast Mode, activate the OSD (if it is not already active) and
do the following:
1. Press [F7]
A Broadcast symbol appears in front of the Port ID (if the Port ID is
currently displayed on the screen), to indicate that Broadcast Mode
is in effect.
2. Input the commands or procedures you wish to broadcast to the
installation in the same way you would if you were carrying them out
on the single computer that you are working at. Whatever operation
you carry out on the current computer, simultaneously occurs on all
the computers on the installation.
3. To exit Broadcast Mode, activate the OSD and press [F7] again.
When Broadcast Mode is no longer in effect, the Broadcast symbol
no longer displays in front of the Port ID.
Note: You cannot use the mouse while the Broadcasting mode is in
effect.
