Auto Scan Mode:
Auto Scan automatically switches among all the active CPU Ports of all
the Master View units in the installation at regular intervals, so that you
can monitor their activity automatically. The amount of time it dwells on
each port is determined with segments 1 and 2 of the First Stage unit’s
DIP Switch (see the Scan Time table in the Appendix for setting details.
To invoke Auto Scan Mode, key in the following Hotkey combination:
1. Press and simultaneously release the Hotkey activation combination
([Alt+Ctrl+Shift] or [LCtrl+RCtrl])
2. Press 0 (zero)
3. Press [Enter]
To exit Auto Scan Mode, press the [Spacebar]. The port that is currently
active at the time scanning stops remains active.
Note: While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, the console will not function.
You must exit Auto Scan Mode in order to regain control of the
console.
