Please Note:
The [n] stands for the number of seconds that the KVM Switch should dwell on a port
before moving on to the next. Replace the [n] with a number between 1 and 99 when
entering this hotkey combination.
Although the video focus switches from port to port, the keyboard, mouse, audio and
USB focus doesn’t switch. They stay at the port they were on when Auto Scanning started.
While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard functions are suspended - only
Auto Scan Mode compliant keystrokes can be input. You must exit Auto Scan Mode in
order to regain normal control of the keyboard.
Hotkey Setting Mode (HSM)
Invoking Hotkey Setting Mode
Hotkey Setting Mode is used to set up your KVM switch configuration. All operations
begin with invoking Hotkey Setting Mode (HSM). To invoke HSM do the following:
1. Press and hold down the [Num Lock] key
2. Press and release the minus [-] key
3. Release the [Num Lock] key
When HSM is active, the Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock LEDs flash in succession to indicate
that HSM is in effect. They stop flashing and revert to normal status when you exit HSM.
Ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended - only Hotkey compliant
keystrokes and mouse clicks (described in the sections that follow), can be input.
At the conclusion of some hotkey operations, you automatically exit HSM. With some
operations, you must exit manually. To do so, press the [Esc] key, or the Spacebar.
