Keyboard Port Operation
The CS1782 provides an extensive, easy-to-use, hotkey function that makes it
convenient to control and configure your KVM installation from the keyboard.
Hotkeys provide asynchronous (independent) switching of the KVM, USB hub
and audio focus. If you wish, you can give one computer the KVM console
focus and the other the USB hub or the audio focus.
Port Switching
All port switches begin with tapping the
Scroll Lock
key twice. The tables
below describe the actions that each combination performs.
Note:
If using the Scroll Lock key conflicts with other programs running on
the computer, the
Ctrl
key can be used, instead. See
Alternate Port
Switching
, page 15, for details.
