CHAPTER 5: OPERATION
Example: Switching to favorite CPU 3 in Private Mode
<left Shift>, <left Shift>, <3>, <left Shift>, <Enter>
DIRECT SWITCHING OF VIDEO
1. Start Command Mode with the hotkey.
Shift and Scroll LEDs on the keyboard will flash if command mode is activated.
2. Enter the index number of the new CPU from the list of favorites and confirm with <Space>.
At the same time, Command Mode is closed and the console is connected to the new CPU with video only.
Example: Switching to favorite CPU 1 with video only
<left Shift>, <left Shift>, <1>, <Space>
SWITCH TO PREVIOUS CPU
1. Start Command Mode with the hotkey. Shift and Scroll LEDs on the keyboard will flash if Command Mode is activated.
2. Press the key <p> of your keyboard.
At the same time, Command Mode is closed and the console is connected to the previous CPU with complete control.
NOTE: If you switch to a CPU that was previously connected with Video Access only, you will be connected to this CPU with full KVM
access.
NOTE: You can only switch to valid, unused CPUs using hotkeys. The options Force Connect and Force Disconnect as well as the
restrictions of the User ACL and CON ACL are taken into account.
Hotkeys are only supported if neither Enable User Login nor the Enable User ACL is selected and the user is logged in the OSD.
DISCONNECT CURRENT CONNECTION
1. Start Command Mode with the hotkey. Shift and Scroll LEDs on the keyboard will flash if Command Mode is activated.
2. Press the <Backspace> key on your keyboard.
The Command Mode is closed and the console is disconnected from the previous connected CPU.
5.1.2 SCAN MODE
Scan Mode enables fast switching between video signals from different CPUs registered as favorites without continuously
using the hotkey.
Switching between two video signals can even take place within one frame.
1. Start command mode with the hotkey. Shift and Scroll LEDs on the keyboard will flash if command mode is activated.
2. Press the key <Left Shift> and hold it down. You can now enter the index numbers of the various CPUs from the list of favorites
with the keyboard and immediately switch to the video signal of the respective CPU after entering the index number.
3. Leave Scan Mode by pressing <Left Shift> + <Esc>.
NOTE: Optimal results can be achieved by the use of as identical resolutions as possible. This contributes to a smooth and seamless
function of the scan mode.
