Hotkey Operation - IOGear GCS1932M User Manual

Hotkey Operation

IOGEAR's GCS1932M/1934M provides an extensive, easy-to-use, hotkey function for
convenience in controlling and configuring KVM installation from the keyboard. Hotkeys
provide asynchronous (independent) switching of the KVM, USB hub, and audio focus.
Therefore, users can give one computer the KVM focus, another the USB hub focus, while
a third has the audio focus.
Port Switching
All port switching begins by clicking [Scroll Lock] 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 Key for details.
