note: Autoscan mode is ended simply by selecting a fixed channel using the on-
screen menu, the keypad, the keyboard hotkeys or the mouse.
Many modern monitors are fitted with automatic power save relays and will switch off
after a few seconds if connected to an inactive PC. If you are using such a monitor
you must not use the L2 feature. Constant switching on and off of your monitor's
relay will eventually damage your monitor.
4.3 Mouse mode and mouse switching of channels
A three button PS/2 mouse or an IntelliMouse can be used to switch channels on the
AdderView by default. To switch to the next channel, the user simply holds down the
central button or wheel button and presses the left hand button to change channel. If
the user does not wish to take advantage of this feature, it can be disabled by
selecting U2, U3 or U5. If the third button is being used to switch the AdderView
then it is not available for use with PC software although the function of an
IntelliMouse wheel is not affected. Consequently in modes U1, U2 and U4 the
AdderView reports to the PCs that a 2 button mouse is connected. If you wish to use
the full function of a 3 button mouse or IntelliMouse for your PC software then you
should select options U3 or U5.
The AdderView supports ‘Internet Mice’ that are compatible with the Microsoft
IntelliMouse. These are fitted with a wheel or other scroll control and sometimes
have additional buttons. Examples are:
