Selecting the Active Port
Each KVM port is assigned a port ID (see Port ID Numbering, page 28). You
can directly access any computer on the installation with a hotkey combination
that specifies the Port ID of the KVM port that the computer is connected to.
The steps involved are:
1. Invoke hotkey mode (see page 48).
2. Key in the port ID.
The port ID numbers display on the command line as you key them in. If
you make a mistake, use [Backspace] to erase the wrong number.
3. Press [Enter].
After you press [Enter], the KVM focus switches to the designated
computer and you automatically exit hotkey mode.
Note: In hotkey mode, KVM focus will not switch to a port if an invalid
switch or port number is entered. The hotkey command line will
continue to display on the screen until you enter a valid switch and
port number combination, or exit hotkey mode.
See page 29 for the Touch Screen Icon equivalent of this hotkey combination
(for KL3116T only).
