2.3.1. Switching via mouse (panning)
When panning the mouse cursor beyond the border of the moni-
tor, you can switch from your console between different monitors
that are in vertical or horizontal position to each other.
Monitors that are only arranged horizontally (e. g. 4x1, 8x1) have
to be operated with the one-dimensional Multi-Screen mode. Mo-
nitors that are arranged vertically and horizontally (e. g. 2x2, 4x2)
have to be operated with the two-dimensional Multi-Screen mode.
1. Activate the switching via mouse by executing the
following keyboard sequences:
■
One-dimensional mode:
‚Hot Key‘, <x>, <1>, <Enter>
■
Two-dimensional mode:
‚Hot Key‘, <x>, <2>, <Enter>
2.
Move the mouse pointer beyond the border of the
monitor to the vertically or horizontally located
monitor.
The switching operation will be immediately executed
to the connected source (computer, CPU) by passing
over the mouse pointer.
3. Deactivate the switching via mouse by executing the
following keyboard sequence:
‚Hot Key‘, <x>, <0>, <Enter>
Additional software for calibration and positioning of the
mouse pointer is not necessary.
When using sources (computers, CPUs) in multi-head
operation (e. g. dual-head), the switching is only working
manually via keyboard commands. Any non-observance
may have a negative influence on the stability of the
system.
2.3. Operation
