Initiate an Auto Scan  
Auto Scan allows you to switch between ports at regular intervals without having to  
manually switch between them. This hotkey command initiates an Auto Scan using the Scan  
Duration entered into the OSD. (See page 20 for details.) By default, the Scan Duration  
is set at 5 second intervals. When scanning, only the KVM focus is transferred to the next  
computer. The USB and Audio focus remain on the same computers they were on when  
Auto Scan began. Also, the only computers that are accessed during an Auto Scan are those  
that are both connected and powered-on. To initiate an Auto Scan, perform the following  
command:  
1. Activate Hotkey Setting Mode using the aforementioned command.  
2. Press and release the [A] key.  
3. Press and release the [Enter] key.

puters. Unlike Auto Scan mode, Skip Mode allows you to monitor connected computers at  
your leisure, without automatically jumping to the next port after a set time interval. Skip  
Mode also allows you to jump back and forth between ports, as opposed to an Auto Scan,  
which automatically skips to the next available port. When in Skip Mode, only the KVM  
focus is transferred to the next computer. The USB and Audio focus remain on the same  
computers they were on when Skip Mode began. To initiate Skip Mode, perform the follow-  
ing command:  
1. Activate Hotkey Setting Mode using the aforementioned command.
