Chapter 6. Hotkey Operation

Auto Scanning
Auto Scan mode switches among all the KVM ports that are accessible to the
current operator at regular intervals (see SCAN MODE under SET SCAN,
p. 108, for information regarding accessible KVM ports). This function is
convenient for automatically monitoring the activity of the computers on the
installation.
Setting the Scan Interval
The amount of time Auto Scan mode focuses on each KVM port is set with the
SCAN INTERVAL setting of the OSD F2 SET function (see SET SCAN on
p. 108). You can change the scan interval before activating Hotkey Auto
Scanning, if you wish, with the following hotkey combination:
1. Invoke Hotkey mode (see p. 123).
2. Key in [T] [n]
Where [T] is the letter T, and [n] is a number from 0–240 that represents
the number of seconds for the dwell time.
The letter T and the numbers display on the command line as you key
them in. If you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong
number.
3. Press [Enter]
After you press [Enter], you automatically exit Hotkey mode, and are
ready to invoke Auto Scanning.
