User Access Functions
Command Mode
In order to control the switch with the keyboard, Command Mode must be enabled. To enable Command Mode from the
keyboard:
Press
Ctrl + ` (Accent key)
All the status lights on the keyboard will illuminate to indicate that Command Mode is enabled. At this point, the Command Mode
menu will be displayed.
The Command Mode menu lists all CPUs by name and port number. Only 8 ports are listed on the screen at a time. To view the
other portions of the list, scroll using the arrow keys on the keyboard or use the mouse to click on the arrows on the scroll bar in
the OSD menu. When the Command Mode main menu is displayed, the first displayed port in the list will be the port the current
user is connected to, followed by the next seven consecutively numbered ports. (Alternatively the list may be sorted
alphabetically- see Maintenance Mode on page 18 to toggle sort method.) The names of accessible ports are displayed with
white characters. If Security is activated, the access rights for the user logged-in may not include all ports. Names of restricted
access ports are displayed in blue.
