CHAPTER 5: Operation
5.8 On-Screen Menu Control
Another convenient way to select CPU channels on the ServSwitch Duo is through
the Switch’s on-screen menu. This menu consists of channel numbers (and, in
cascaded systems, channel addresses) paired with computer names that you assign.
The menu is called up by pressing the hotkey sequence followed by the letter “M”
at the shared keyboard. When the menu is first called up, there will be no names
listed for any of your computers; you have to enter the names and channel
numbers that will make up the menu. (When you’re finished, press [Esc] to exit.)
In the menu for 4-port and 8-port models, channel numbers and addresses are
shown as single digits:
In the menu for 12-port and 16-port models, channel numbers and addresses
are shown as double digits:
In each case, the dot (“
”
) shows the currently selected computer.
