corresponding PC port and audio/mic channel (if enabled). By default, PC port
switching and audio/mic port switching are bound together.

: These products features both User-definable Hotkeys
for PC selection and a Universal Hotkey Sequence that can be used to switch
connected PCs.
Universal Hotkey Sequence: ScrLk + ScrLk

KVM Switching
software
section, for keys that are eligible to be used as a command key.
(3) KVM Switching software
: To launch the operation menu, right-click on the KVM
Switching icon located in the system tray.
By selecting
Settings

the desired value into the editable text box. Please note: ALT, CTRL, SHIFT, CAPS,
TAB, ESC, function keys (i.e. F1, F2) and edit keys cannot be selected as hotkeys.
