Keyboard Switching
One of the ways to change the active channel in a non-secured AutoView 424
system is by entering a short sequence of keystrokes on the keyboard. This is
called keyboard, hotkey or soft switching. In addition, there are a variety of
commands that can be activated via the keyboard without having to access the
OSD. The following procedures and tables describe your options.
NOTE: Hotkey switching is only available in the default non-secure state. For more information on
secure versus non-secure operation, see the Setting User Station Security section of this chapter.
Using the Command Mode
The first set of keystrokes places your system in Command Mode. A gray
window with a command line will appear. As long as you are operating in
Command Mode, whatever you type will be interpreted as channel switch
commands until the Enter or the Escape key is pressed to terminate Command
Mode. None of the keystrokes entered will be forwarded to the attached
computer until you exit Command Mode.
