Hotkey Operation
Note:
If using the
Num Lock
and
Minus
key to invoke Hotkey function is not optimal for your setup, refer to
the next page to change the hotkey invocation keys.
When Hotkey Mode is active, the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock LEDs flash in succession to indicate that
HSM is in effect. They stop flashing and revert to normal status when you exit HSM.
Ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended – only Hotkey compliant keystrokes and mouse
clicks can be input.
At the conclusion of some hotkey operations, you automatically exit Hotkey mode. With some operations,
you must exit manually by pressing the Esc or Spacebar on your keyboard.
