Chapter 5: Operation
Disconnect current connection
1. Start Command Mode with the hotkey. When this mode is activated, the Shift
and Scroll LEDs flash at the keyboard.
2. Press the <Backspace> key on your keyboard. The Command Mode closes and
the console disconnects from the previously connected CPU.
5.1.2 Scan Mode
The Scan Mode can show video signals of the different CPUs fast and without
delay and switch continuously using the hotkey. Switching between two video
signals can even take place within one frame.
1. Start command mode with the hotkey. For control, the “Shift” and “Scroll”
LEDs flash at the keyboard if command mode is activated.
2. Press the “<Left Shift>” key and hold it down. You can now enter the index
numbers of the various CPUs from the list of favorites with the keyboard and
immediately switch to the video signal of the respective CPU after entering the
index number.
3. Leave Scan Mode by pressing “<Left Shift> + <Esc>.”
NOTE: For optimal results, use identical resolutions. This contributes to a smooth
and seamless scan mode function. If the computers/targets are using
different video resolutions or refresh rates, the switching time is reduced
because the user monitor will need to sync on the new signal, thus causing
the monitor to go blank for a few moments.
5.1.3 Function Keys <F1>–<F16>
In Command Mode you can retrieve the Macros 1–16 with the function keys
<F1>–<F16> of the connected standard keyboard instead of the special macro
keyboard.
The deposited command sequence for the appropriate function key is executed
and Command Mode is left immediately.
NOTE: You don’t need to press the “Enter” key for confirmation of macros.
5.1.4 Addressing of Main and Sub Matrices
The ServSwitch DKM FX can be cascaded in two steps. You can optionally send
the commands (including opening the OSD) to the main or the sub matrix.
Whenever command mode is activated, you can select by a <m> or a <s>, if all
the following commands should be handled in the main or in the sub matrix.
