OutLook 180DX Installer/User Guide
NOTE: Broadcasting Keystrokes - The keyboard state must be identical for all servers
receiving a broadcast to interpret keystrokes identically. Specifically, the Caps Lock and Num
Lock modes must be the same on all keyboards. While the switch attempts to send keystrokes to
the selected servers simultaneously, some servers may inhibit and thereby delay the transmission.
NOTE: Broadcasting Mouse Movements - For the mouse to work accurately, all systems
must have identical mouse drivers, desktops (such as identically placed icons) and video
resolutions. In addition, the mouse must be in exactly the same pl a ce on all screens. Because
these conditions are extremely difficult to achieve, broadcasting mouse movements to multiple
systems may have unpredictable results.
To broadcast to selected servers:
1. Highlight Setup - Broadcast from the Advanced Menus screen and press
Enter . The Broadcast Settings screen appears.
2. For each port, select which computers receive keyboard and/or mouse
commands by using the Plus ( + ) or Minus ( – ) keys to choose Yes or No .
3. Press Enter to save the settings.
4. Highlight Commands - Broadcast in the Advanced Menus screen. Press
Enter to turn on the broadcast mode. Type information and/or make
mouse movements you want to broadcast.
5. To stop broadcasting, highlight Commands - Broadcast in the Advanced
Menus screen and press Enter .
Using Snapshot
Snapshot saves the keyboard and mouse information of your powered up servers.
The OutLook switch uses this information to initialize the keyboard and mouse
interfaces of the servers. If power is turned off to the switch before you perform
the Snapshot procedure, then you must restart each server to reestablish keyboard
and mouse communication with the switch. Perform Snapshot after you install the
switch system, add servers to the system or change the mouse or keyboard.
How Snapshot works with power outages
If you have performed Snapshot, once power is restored after a power outage,
OutLook switches automatically restore the keyboard and mouse settings of
each server. If you use an uninterrupted power supply, connect the switches to
the same source as the rest of the system.
To save keyboard and mouse settings:
Highlight Commands - Snapshot in the Advanced Menus screen and press Enter .
