CHAPTER 5: Operation
Keyboard- and mouse-mode handling during channel
switching:
The ServSwitch Wizard keeps a log of the
keyboard and mouse modes and resolution settings
requested by each of the connected PCs, including the
keyboard Num Lock, Caps Lock, and Scroll Lock states.
These settings are automatically restored to the shared
keyboard and mouse when the ServSwitch Wizard
channel is switched, ensuring maximum software
compatibility.
5.5 Keyboard Control: Hotkey Commands (Including
Autoscanning and Screen Blanking)
You can control several functions on the ServSwitch
Wizard—such as CPU-channel selection and
autoscanning—from the keyboard, using commands
triggered with the Switch’s currently selected hotkey
combination. All of the hotkey-control commands are
invoked by holding down the one or two hotkeys and
then pressing a command key. By default, the two
hotkeys are [Ctrl] and [Alt], although you can change
to [Ctrl] and [Shift] by setting position 1 of the Switch’s
configuration DIP switch to ON (see
Section 4.2
).
