Hotkey Port Control
Alternate OSD Invocation Keys:
The OSD activation method can be changed from
tapping the Scroll Lock key twice to tapping the Ctrl
key twice ([Ctrl] [Ctrl]). To change the OSD
Invocation method, do the following:
1. Invoke HKM (see p. 19)
2. Press and release the T key
Note:
1. This procedure is a toggle between the two
methods. To revert back to the original [Scroll
Lock] [Scroll Lock] method, invoke HKM, then
press and release the T key again.
2. For Mac systems we recommend using [Ctrl]
[Ctrl] as the OSD invocation keys since Scroll
Lock is used to emulate F14 in PC to Mac
keyboard emulation (see p. 26).
Keyboard Platform Setup:
The GCS1758’s default port settings are for a PC
Compatible operating platform, and the US English
keyboard language code. You can modify these for
each port by bringing the KVM focus to the port you
want to change and using the hotkey combinations
shown in the table below.
The Hotkey entry method is as follows:
1. Invoke HKM (see p. 19)
2. Press and release the appropriate Function key
(see table). After completing a setting, you
automatically exit HKM.
Note: The brackets indicate the keys you should
press. Simply press the indicated keys – do not
type the brackets.
