Last/Next Mode:
Last/Next mode enables you to easily switch from the currently active
computer to the previous or next available computer in the installation.
There are two methods of invoking Last/Next Mode: Basic Mode, and
Quick Mode.The choice of mode is made with DIP Switch 4. Set the switch
to Off for Basic Mode; Set the switch to On for Quick Mode.
Quick Mode:
With Quick Mode, Last/Next selection is always available - it does not have
to be invoked as the [Alt+Ctrl+Shift] method does. At any time, simply
press LCtrl] + [LCtrl] to switch from the currently active computer to the
one previous to it; or press [RCtrl] + [RCtrl] to switch from the currently
active computer to the next one in the installation.
Besides being more convenient than Basic Mode, the advantage of this
method is that the keyboard remains active so you can use the console
to carry out commands on the accessed computer. The disadvantage is
that pressing the Ctrl keys may conflict with programs already running on
the computers.
Basic Mode:
1. Press and simultaneously release [Alt+Ctrl+Shift] or [LCtrl+RCtrl]
2. Press 9
3. Press [Enter]
4. Press the left Shift key (LShift) to switch from the currently active
computer to the one previous to it; press RShift to switch from the
currently active computer to the next one in the installation.
Note: With this method, while Last/Next Mode is in effect, the console
will not function. You must exit Last/Next Mode by pressing the
[Spacebar] in order to regain control of the console.
