Auto Scan
In this mode, the KVM automatically switches from one powered computer to the next
sequentially in a fixed interval. During Auto Scan mode, the OSD displays the name of
the selected computer. When Auto Scan detects any keyboard or mouse activity, it
suspends the scanning until activity stops; it then resumes with the next computer in
sequence. To abort Auto Scan mode, press the left <CTRL> twice. Scan Type and Scan
Rate set the scan pattern. Scan Type (<F4>: More\Scan Type) determines if scanned
computers must also be eye mark selected. Scan Rate (<F4>: More\Scan Rate) sets
the display interval when a computer is selected before selecting the next one.
Manual Scan
Scans through powered computers using keyboard control. Scan Type (<F4>: More\Scan
Type) determines if scanned computers must also be eye mark selected. Press the up
arrow key to select the previous computer and the down arrow key to select the next
computer. Press any other key to abort the Manual Scan mode.
Audio Stick
A multimedia module can be LINKed to the back of each KVM for selecting microphone
and stereo speaker signals. There are two options for Audio Stick: On and Off. When
set to On, audio selection follows computer selection. When set to Off, audio selection
stops following computer selection. Off mode is useful if you want to listen to a particular
computer's audio signal while operating other computers. The non-volatile memory stores
the Audio Stick setting. (Note: This is an optional feature requiring a separate device to
be connected to the master switch.)
