a laptop screen shuts off once that port is activated. See the user guide
for the computer for details, or contact the Extron S3 Sales and Technical
Support Hotline for a list of common laptop keyboard commands (see
the

contact numbers

on the last page of this guide for the Extron office

nearest you).

output by the switcher is in the same format as the input.
