NTI KEEMUX Series PS/2 KVM Switch

Broadcast Mode
(Use with extreme caution or commands intended for one CPU will be sent to all CPUs)
Broadcast Mode allows the operator to send keystrokes to all active CPUs simultaneously (even those CPUs the user cannot
connect to due to lack of security access ).
To enter Broadcast Mode press <Ctrl> + <B> from Command Mode. Broadcast Mode is
indicated by the illumination of the BROADCAST LED on the front panel. The BROADCAST LED will remain ON while in
Broadcast Mode. However, Broadcast Mode has some critical requirements:
• BROADCAST LED must be OFF when booting any attached CPUs.
• BROADCAST LED must be ON and COMMAND LED must be OFF for keystrokes to reach attached CPUs.
Normal Mode
When all of the KEEMUX mode LEDs are OFF the user is in Normal Mode, controlling the CPU to which the user is connected
through the KEEMUX.
Edit Mode
Edit Mode allows the user to modify the names of the CPUs connected to the switch. Names of CPUs can be up to 12 characters
in length. To enter Edit Mode press <Ctrl> + <E> from Command Mode. When in Edit Mode, multiple keystroke combinations
are not valid (<SHIFT>+<P>, <CTRL>+<P>, <ALT>+ <P>, and <P> will all type a “P” to the display - lower case letters cannot be
typed). After changes have been made the user will be prompted by the menu to save the changes. Answer "Y" to save changes
and answer "N" to continue using previously entered port names.

When finished making changes in Edit Mode, press <Enter> and a prompt will appear to press either <Y> to save the changes or
<N> to continue making changes without saving the changes just made. If the <ESC> key is pressed instead of <Enter>, all
changes made will be cancelled and the display will return to the previous menu.
