When you invoke the OSD, a screen similar to the one above appears:

Note: 1. The diagram depicts the Administrator’s Main Screen. The User Main Screen does

not have the F4 and F6 functions, since they can’t be accessed by ordinary Users and
are reserved for the Administrator.

2. OSD always starts in List view, with the highlight bar at the same position it was

when it was last closed.

3. Only the ports that have been set accessible by the Administrator for the currently

logged in User are visible (see SET ACCESSIBLE PORTS, page 16, for details).

4. If the port list is collapsed into stations, simply click on the plus sign next to the

desired station number, or highlight the desired station number and hit the

[Enter]

key.

The On-Screen Display (OSD) is a text-based interface that allows for control and administration of the KVM switch. When logging onto the KVM
switch, the OSD Main Menu is the first screen you will see after entering your username and password.

The KVM switch features a two-level security, with one Administrator and four User accounts. If you are an Administrator accessing the KVM switch
for the first time, leave the username and password field blank and hit the [Enter] key twice to access the OSD Main Menu. Once logged into the KVM
switch as Administrator, you will be able to access all OSD features and customize KVM settings. At this point, it is highly recommended that you change
the Administrator username and password.

Once logged into the KVM switch, you will need to use one of two sequences to open the OSD Main Menu; [Scroll Lock, Scroll Lock] or [Ctrl, Ctrl].
The default OSD invocation sequence is [Scroll Lock, Scroll Lock]. Note: When using the [Scroll Lock, Scroll Lock] OSD invocation sequence, you must
hold down the

[Fn] key, as the [Scroll Lock] key is part of the [Num Lock] key.
