USING YOUR SWITCH
Using the AutoScan Function from the Front Panel
Pressing the AutoScan button on the Switch activates it. In AutoScan Mode, the
Switch remains focused on one port for a configured interval (1–99 seconds), before
toggling to the next port.

AutoScan Mode

• AutoScan Mode will continue indefinitely until terminated by pressing any valid
hot key sequence, or pressing a button on the front panel.
• When the Switch is in AutoScan Mode, it is also in View-Only Mode. This means
that input from the console will not be transmitted to the computer in focus.
Cancel AutoScan to regain control of the computer.
• The AutoScan rate is user-configurable, by computer, in the Setup page of the OSD.
• AutoScan skips any computers that the user has been restricted from viewing
(The restrictions are set on the Security page in the OSD).
• One Port Selection LED will be lit, corresponding to the port in focus.
• The Console LED will be lit, indicating that this Switch is a console.
• On a standalone Switch, the 7-segment LEDs display the number of the port in
focus; on a daisy-chain Switch, the 7-segment LEDs will display the address of
the BANK in focus.
1. To enter AutoScan Mode, press and release the AutoScan button (once on a
standalone Switch and twice on a daisy-chain Switch).
2. Pressing and releasing any button on the front panel will cause the Switch to
beep and exit AutoScan Mode. If you pressed a direct-access port selector, the
Switch will also toggle the focus to the selected port. If you don't have
permission to access the selected port, a banner message will display.
Using the MultiView Feature
Your ENTERPRISE Quad-Bus Series KVM Switch is capable of allowing multiple users
to view the same computer simultaneously; however, only the first console to focus
on that computer will have control (be capable of input). When additional consoles
focus on the same computer, those consoles will display the banner, "Viewing only,
no control." The console with control will display the banner, "Viewed by console X,"
where X corresponds to the letter of another console viewing that computer. If the
banner is enabled on either type of console, it will be displayed indefinitely; if the
banner is disabled, it will be displayed for five seconds.

IntelliView Graphical On-Screen Display Menu Control

The IntelliView Graphical On-Screen Display (OSD) is intended to have a look and
feel similar to popular Windows-based operating systems for PCs. To activate
IntelliView, press on "Scroll Lock + Scroll Lock + space bar" on your keyboard. (There
are other keys that can be substituted for the Scroll Lock key. For keyboards that do
not have Scroll Lock keys, refer to the "IntelliView Options Page" section of this User
Manual for more information).
IntelliView OSD Features
The Main page is the initial screen that will appear after opening IntelliView. Its
screen layout is similar to many Windows-based operating systems. The user will
see a window with a title bar with some controls and a main area where the user
accesses the features of the Switch.
The top right side of IntelliView's title bar identifies the user's current console and
the user that is currently logged-in. Selecting the "?" button displays the Help
Screen, which will provide instructions for using the current IntelliView page.
Selecting the "X" button or pressing the Escape key will close the page the user is
viewing. Pressing the Escape key when you are on the main page will close IntelliView.
Note: All changes to IntelliView are written and saved to memory as soon as the focus
changes; there is no method of canceling or undoing actions once they have been
entered. There is one exception, when editing the contents of an edit box (e.g. the
Computer Name edit box), ESC will exit the control and revert the contents back to
their original form.
Input and Navigation Features
• Clicking on the Group, Computer Name, or ID column headers sorts the list box
entries in ascending order, by the column header selected.
• Double-clicking on a computer line will select that computer line and switch the
console's focus to the selected port. If the user is restricted from accessing the
selected computer, an error message will be displayed. When the error dialog is
cleared, the console's focus will remain on the previously selected port.
• Pressing the up or down arrow keys, while IntelliView is up, moves the computer
cursor (the row highlighted blue) up or down. If the cursor moves outside of the
visible area, the list will scroll by one line. The scroll wheel on the mouse can
also be used to perform this function.
• The up/down double arrows, to the right of the computer list, scroll the list up
and down one page at a time. The Page Up and Page Down keys on the keyboard
also perform this function.
