The CL-1758 provides the following Hotkey Port Access features:
Selecting the Active Port
Auto Scan Mode
Selecting the Active Port
Each KVM port on the CL-1758 installation is assigned a unique Port ID (see
Port ID Numbering, page 27). You can bring the KVM focus to any computer
on the installation with a Hotkey combination that specifies the Port ID of the
KVM Port that it is connected to. The steps involved are:
1. Invoke HKM (see p. 41).
2. Key in the computer's Port ID
The Port ID numbers display on the Command Line as you key them in. If
you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong number.
3. Press [Enter]
After you press [Enter], the KVM focus switches to the computer
associated with the specified Port ID, and you automatically exit Hotkey
Mode.
