Hotkey Operation
Hotkey Port Control
Hotkey port control allows you to provide KVM focus to a particular KVM
port directly from the keyboard.
Note: Hotkeys work best in single level and basic cascaded or daisy-chained
installations. For installations that combine daisy-chaining and
cascading, it is simpler, more convenient, and more efficient to use the
OSD.
The KM0832 provides the following hotkey port control features:
Port switching
Auto scanning
Skip mode switching
Invoking Hotkey Mode
All hotkey operations begin by invoking Hotkey mode. You must be viewing
a port in the KM0832 KVM installation to invoke Hotkey mode.
To invoke Hotkey mode:
1. Press and hold down the [Num Lock] key.
2. Press and release the minus [-] key or the asterisk [*] key.
3. Release the [Num Lock] key.
[Num Lock] + [-]
-or-
[Num Lock] + [*]
