CHAPTER 2: Introduction
Flexibility:
• Full-featured command set includes a scan command to automatically switch
through a subset of computers over the course of an adjustable time interval.
• You can use keyboard commands, on-screen menus, or RS-232 devices to
switch computers to your keyboard/video/mouse station.
• Integrated autoswitching power supply can be connected to either 110-VAC or
220-VAC outlets.
On-Screen Display Technology:
• The Matrix ServSwitch can mix its own video output with that of the attached
computers so that its menus “pop up” on top of application screens.
• Easy-to-use menus guide you through configuration.
• Connection-status information can be displayed in any of a large number of
color combinations. You can set it to disappear either after an adjustable time
interval elapses or on demand.
• Choose a computer from a list of computer names and connect instantly.
• Can display any of four screen-saver patterns if no keyboard or mouse activity
has occurred within an adjustable time period.
• Selectable color schemes for menus and windows include many opaque and
translucent colors.
