Auto Scanning
The GCS1204’s Auto Scan feature automatically cycles KVM focus through the computer ports at
regular intervals. This allows you to monitor computer activity without having to switch from port
to port manually.
Note:
1.
N stands for the number of seconds the GCS1204 will dwell on a port before moving on to the next.
Replace N with a number between 1 and 99 when entering the hotkey combination.
2. While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended – only
Auto Scan Mode compliant keystrokes and mouse clicks can be input. You must exit Auto Scan Mode
in order to regain normal control of the console (hit the space bar or the Esc key).
3. Although the video focus switches from port to port, the keyboard, mouse, and USB focus remain on
the port where Auto Scanning began.
