7. OSD (On-Screen Display) Operation
F7 Scan (SCAN)
Invoke the Auto Scan Mode by clicking the F7 field or pressing [F7]. This function allows you
to cycle through available computers at regular intervals so that you can monitor their activity
without having to take the trouble of switching yourself.
• The selection of computers to be included for Auto Scanning is made with the Scan/Skip Mode
setting under the F3 SET function (see page 16).
• The amount of time that each Port displays for is set with the Scan Duration setting under
the F3 SET function (see page 16). When you want to stop at a particular location, press the
[Spacebar] or [Esc] to stop scanning.
• If the scanning stops on an empty port, or one where the computer is attached but is powered
Off, the monitor screen will be blank, and the mouse and keyboard will have no effect. After
the Scan Duration time is up, the Scan function will move on to the next port.
• As each computer is accessed, an S appears in front of the Port ID display to indicate that it is
being accessed under Auto Scan Mode.
• While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, the keyboard and mouse will not function. You must exit
Auto Scan Mode in order to regain control of the console.
• While in Auto Scan Mode, the scanning can be paused in order to keep the focus on a
particular computer either by pressing P, or with a left click of the mouse.
• To exit Auto Scan Mode, press the [Spacebar] or [Esc].
F8 Log Out (LOUT)
Clicking the F8 field or pressing [F8] logs you out of the KVM Switch, and blanks the Console
screen. This is different from simply pressing [Esc] to deactivate the OSD. With this function you
must log in again to regain access to the KVM, whereas with [Esc], you are only logged out of the
OSD screen.
Note: 1. When you reenter the OSD after logging out, the screen stays blank except for the OSD Main Menu.
You must input your password before you can continue.
2. If you reenter the OSD after logging out, and immediately use [Esc] to deactivate the OSD without
having selected a port from the OSD menu, a Null Port message displays on the screen.The OSD Hotkey
will bring up the Main OSD Screen.
