Basic Operation
Hotkeys
Hotkeys switch the functionality focus between ports using only the keyboard, as
well as configure KVM switch settings. The following section describes the hotkey
functionality available for the B024-DUA8-SL and B024-DUA8-DL.
Hotkey Setting Mode
All hotkey operations begin by entering Hotkey Setting mode. All commands in Hotkey
Setting mode begin by entering the Hotkey Setting Mode Activation Command. When
Hotkey Setting mode is activated, the [Scroll Lock] and [Caps Lock] keyboard LEDs
flash in succession and ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended.
A command line will appear on the monitor screen displaying subsequent hotkey
information typed in. The following section describes how to activate Hotkey Setting
mode, as well as the commands it can perform. A table at the end of this section
summarizes all of the commands.
To activate Hotkey Setting mode, perform the following steps:
1. Press and hold down the [Num Lock] key.
2. While holding down the [Num Lock] key, press and release the minus [-] key.
3. After releasing the minus [-] key, release the [Num Lock] key.
Alternate Hotkey Setting Mode Activation Command
The Hotkey Setting Mode Activation Command defaults at [Num Lock] [-], but can be
switched to use [Ctrl] [F12]. When switched to [Ctrl] [F12], the [Ctrl] key takes the
place of the [Num Lock] key, and [F12] takes the place of the [-] key. To activate the
Alternate Hotkey Setting Mode Activation Command, perform the following steps:
1. Activate Hotkey Setting mode using the aforementioned command
2. Press and release the [H] key
To revert to the previous command, perform these steps again.
Select Active Ports
Select the Active Port via Port ID – KVM, Audio and USB
Each KVM port is assigned a port ID. Any computer on the installation can be directly
accessed with a hotkey combination specifying the port ID of the KVM port a computer
is connected to.
• A computer attached to a master unit uses a two-digit Port ID (01 through 08) that
corresponds to the KVM port number it is connected to.
• A computer attached to a slave unit uses a four-digit Port ID. The first two digits
represent the KVM port number on the master and the second two digits represent
the KVM port number on the slave unit that the computer is connected to. For
example, a Port ID of 02–08 would refer to a computer connected to KVM port 8
of a slave unit that links back to KVM port 2 of the master unit. In a three-level
cascade installation, a computer will use a six-digit port ID.
