Chapter 4

Hotkey Operation

The CS1782A / CS1784A provides an extensive, easy-to-use, hotkey function

that makes it convenient to control and configure your KVM installation from

the keyboard. Hotkeys provide independent switching of the KVM, USB hub,

and audio focus. Therefore, you can give one computer the KVM focus,

another the USB hub focus, while a third has the audio focus.

Port Switching

All port switches begin with tapping the Scroll Lock key twice. The tables

below describe the actions that each combination performs.

Note: If using the Scroll Lock key conflicts with other programs running on

the computer, the Ctrl key can be used, instead. See Alternate Port

Switching Keys, page 23 for details.
