Operation Options
The ServSwitch Brand CATx KVM Extender Series has a number of commands to reset the
keyboard and mouse, to reset EQ and Delay values, to restore the factory default
configuration, change DDC settings, and to initiate and control a Private mode session (Dual
Access models only).
Command Key Sequence
Reset Mouse and Keyboard <F1>
Resets the Remote console’s keyboard and mouse and then automatically exits Command Mode. You
may need to do this if you have hot-plugged a keyboard or mouse and it has not initialized correctly.
Mouse Recovery <F3>
Use this command if you experience erratic movement of the mouse pointer or you have lost mouse
movement after hot plugging the Local unit into the CPU. In the case of erratic mouse movement, you
may need to enter the command a number of times to re-synchronize the mouse signal. Alternatively,
stop moving the mouse for a few seconds and the operating system’s mouse drivers may automatically
re-synchronize the signal. If the Local unit has been hot-plugged, this command will issue a request to
the OS to initialize the mouse. Use this command with care.
Reset EQ Values <Left Control> + <End>
You can use this command to zero HF & LF EQ values for the selected video channel(s). Current color
delay values are not affected.
Reset EQ & Delay Values <Left Control> + <Home>
Set all video EQ (HF & LF) and color delay values to zero for the currently selected video channel(s).
You can use this command to reset EQ and delay values for all video channels in a multi-head
installation by selecting Channel 0 prior to issuing this command.
Set Extender To Default State <Left Control> + <F9>
Sets ALL extender settings (video & configuration) back to the factory defaults.
Toggle Remote Unit Private Mode <Scroll Lock>
Use this command to begin or end a Private Mode session at the Remote console (see page 34).
Toggle Local Video Blanking State <Left Control> + <Scroll Lock>
Use this command to determine whether the Local console monitor will be blanked (default setting) or
enabled during a Private mode session at the Remote console.
Disable DDC Emulation <Left Control> + <F2>
By default, the Local unit provides DDC emulation on both video channels. Use this command to
disable DDC emulation (see page 35).
Enable DDC Emulation <F2>
Use this command to restore DDC emulation (see page 35).
Transfer DDC to Local Unit <Left Control> + <D>
Read DDC from monitor connected to Remote Unit video channel 1 and apply to selected video
channels in Local Unit (see page 36).
