CHAPTER 5: OPERATION
The Modular KVM Matrix Switches can be operated in three different ways.
1. Direct Switching
via a keyboard connected to a CON port and the favorites
by a macro keyboard connected to a console port
2. OSD
via keyboard/mouse directly connected to the CPU board of the matrix
via keyboard/mouse connected to a CON Unit and the OSD
3. External Switching Commands
via an external computer via Java tool (network connection required)
via a media control (network or serial connection required)
5.1 OPERATION VIA HOTKEYS
5.1.1 DIRECT SWITCHING
Direct switching by favorites on a keyboard is the fastest way for a user to switch at his console between different CPUs.
This offers the option to switch video, keyboard and mouse or video only.
DIRECT SWITCHING OF VIDEO, KEYBOARD AND MOUSE
1. Start Command Mode with the hotkey. Shift and Scroll LEDs on the keyboard will flash if Command Mode is activated.
2. Enter the index number of the new CPU from the list of favorites and confirm with <Enter>.
At the same time, the Command Mode is closed and the console is connected to the new CPU, which takes over complete control.
Example: Switching to favorite CPU 7 with video, keyboard and mouse
<left Shift>, <left Shift>, <7>, <Enter>
NOTE: Fastest switching time can be achieved by using identical mice, keyboards and monitors. This contributes to a smooth and
seamless direct switching of the matrix.
SWITCHING IN PRIVATE MODE
1. Start Command Mode with the hotkey. Shift and Scroll LEDs on the keyboard will flash if command mode is activated.
2. Enter the index number of the new CPU from the list of favorites and confirm with <left Shift>, <Enter> pressed at the same time.
At the same time, the Command Mode is closed and the console is connected to the new CPU with complete control in Private
Mode.
