Controlling the PCs in your MiniView

TM

 configuration 

from a single console couldn’t be easier. Two port 
selection methods provide instant access to any 
attached PC: 

 
Manual Port Selection 

Hot Key

 Port Selection 

 
Note: When powering-on, the MiniView

TM

 switches to port 1 

by default. If the PC attached to port 1 is inactive, the 
monitor will be blank so it may appear as if the unit is not 
functioning. This is not the case. Simply use one of the port 
selection 
methods described below to switch to the active PC on a 
different port. 

 
Manual Port Selection

 

With manual port selection, you simply press the 

Port 

Selection

 button on the 

side panel of the MiniView

TM

 to switch between computers. 

The selected LED on the top panel will light up to indicate 
which port is active.
