Accessed through: GLOBAL PREFERENCES
Possible settings: INTELLIMOUSE (factory default), 2 BUTTON, 3 BUTTON
You might want to set this option if you have any computers attached to the Duo/
Quadro that use an RS-232 serial mouse rather than a PS/2 mouse. (You’ll need an
adapter to attach the serial mouse ports of such computers to the Duo/Quadro—
see
Section 3.4.4 .)
The Duo/Quadro automatically translates PS/2 mouse data into RS-232 serial
mouse data, but the serial mouse data needs to be formatted differently depending
on whether the computer’s serial-mouse driver is designed for a 2-button, 3-button,
or IntelliMouse (wheel mouse) type. Set this option for the format that’s
appropriate for your serial-mouse computers. Keep in mind that mouse functions
will be slightly more sluggish with the four-byte IntelliMouse format than they will
be with the other formats (both three-byte). In general, RS-232 mice are almost
always more sluggish than PS/2 mice, because their data rate is much slower.
4.8 Setting Up the Autoscan List
The ServSwitch Duo/Quadro can autoscan the computers attached to it, briefly
switching to each one in sequence and displaying its video before moving on to the
next. When you set the autoscan mode to SCAN LIST (see
Section 4.7.9 ), the
Duo/Quadro will scan through a list of all of the system computers that you’ve
selected (even computers that are attached to subsidiary Duo/Quadro chassis in a
cascade). To set up this list once you’ve created all your computer names (see
Section 4.6
), take these steps:
1. Make sure that you are logged on as the ADMIN user.
2. At the main on-screen menu, press the [F1] key for MORE MENUS.
3. Select EDIT AUTOSCAN LIST from the menu. The list of computers for
which you’ve created names will appear.
4. As directed in the menu, use the space bar and function keys to choose which
computers you want to add to or remove from the list. The starred computers
will be scanned during autoscanning.
5. Press [Esc] (the escape key) repeatedly to exit the menu system.
NOTE
Although we don’t normally recommend creating duplicate computer
names, you might want to create a special set of duplicate names—
perhaps all starting with “Z” or something—for the CPUs in your
autoscan list. This will allow you to customize the order of the scanning
in any way you want.
