OSD Function Keys

You can use the function keys when the OSD menu is active.

Function key <F1>

Edits the name of a managed computer or a Slave KVM. First, use the <UP> and

<DOWN> arrow keys to highlight a channel then press <F1> followed by name entry.

Your name can be up to 14 characters long. Valid characters are A to Z, 0 to 9, and the

dash character. Lowercase letters are converted to uppercase. Press <BACKSPACE> to

delete a letter one at a time. Nonvolatile memory stores all name entries until you

change, even if the unit is powered down.

Function key <F2>

Marks a computer to be scanned by switching the eye mark on or off. First, use the <UP>

and <DOWN> arrow keys to highlight the device, then press <F2> to switch its eye mark

on or off. If Scan Type is Ready PC + Eye (see Function key <F4>), only the powered

and eye-marked computers will be displayed in Scan mode.

Function key <F3>

Locks a device (a computer or a Slave) from unauthorized access. To lock a device, use

the <UP> and <DOWN> arrow keys to highlight it, then press <F3>. Now, enter up to 4

characters (A to Z, 0 to 9, dash) followed by <ENTER> as new password. A Security-

enabled device is marked with a lock beside its channel number. To permanently disable

the security function from a locked device, highlight it, press <F3> then enter the

password. If you want to access the locked device temporarily, simply highlight it and

press <ENTER>. Enter the password and you can access the device. The device is

automatically re-locked once you switch to another device. During Scan mode, OSD

skips the security-enabled device.
