PERSONAL SERVSWITCH™
4.2 Scanning PCs
The Personal ServSwitch’s scanning feature allows you to automatically monitor, or
scan, each PC in your Switch system. If you use the keyboard during scanning, the
scan will pause until you finish, then resume with the next PC. (You can set the
Switch to pause scanning on mouse activity as well if you want.) The scan “dwell
time” (the length of time each PC’s video remains on the screen) can be changed
at any time. Scanning will be halted if the Halt command is entered or if another
PC is selected.
The following key sequences configure and control scanning.
Key Sequence
Action
[CTRL][CTRL] D
nn
[ENTER]
Sets the dwell time in seconds, where
nn

value from 02 to 60. The default value is 05
(five seconds).
[CTRL][CTRL] SG [ENTER]
Scan Go (starts scan).
[CTRL][CTRL] SH [ENTER]
Scan Halt (stops scan).
[CTRL][CTRL] M- [ENTER]
Mouse activity does not pause scan (default
setting).
[CTRL][CTRL] M+ [ENTER]
Mouse activity pauses scan in the same way that
keyboard activity does.
Some examples:
[CTRL][CTRL] D10 [ENTER]
Each PC’s video will remain on screen for ten
seconds before the next port is displayed.
[CTRL][CTRL] SG [ENTER]
Scanning begins with the current computer,
then continues to the next PC in sequence.
[CTRL][CTRL] SH [ENTER]
Scanning stops until the Go command is reissued.
[CTRL][CTRL] M+ [ENTER]
Until the M- command is issued, scans pause on
ports until all keyboard
and
mouse activity
stops.
