M
Auto Scan Mode
The CS-1732 / CS-1734’s Auto Scan feature automatically cycles through the
computer ports at regular 5 second intervals. This allows you to monitor the
computer activity without having to take the trouble of switching from port to
port manually. To start Auto Scan Mode:
1. Invoke HKM (see p. 12)
2. Press and release the A key
Once scanning begins, it continues until you press [Esc] or [Spacebar] to exit
Auto Scan Mode. The Port that is active at the time scanning stops remains
active.
Note: 1. While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse
functions are suspended. You must exit Auto Scan Mode by
pressing [Esc] or [Spacebar] in order to regain normal control of
their use.
2. Pressing [Esc] or [Spacebar] exits both Auto Scan Mode and
Hotkey Mode.
M
Skip Mode
Skip Mode is a shortcut method for port switching. It allows you to hotkey
switch the KVM focus and USB peripheral access from the port that currently
has the KVM focus to the next port on the installation (1 to 2; 2 to 1 for the
CS-1732; 1 to 2; 2 to 3; 3 to 4; 4 to 1 for the CS-1734), without having to
invoke Hotkey Mode.
To perform a skip, tap the Scroll Lock key twice. When you do this, two port
switching changes occur:
M The KVM focus switches from its current port, to the next port.
M The USB focus switches to the port with the new KVM focus so that they
are both synchronized.
After the port switching takes place, you automatically exit Hotkey Mode.
Note: The Skip Mode activation key can be changed to the Ctrl key (see p.
15 for details).
