Keyboard

Switching

One of the ways to change the active channel in a non-secured AutoView

system is by entering a short sequence of keystrokes on the keyboard. This

is called keyboard, or hot-key, switching.

Note: Hot-key switching is only available in the default non-secure state.

For more information on secure versus non-secure operation, see

the ‘Administrator Functions’ section of Chapter 4.

The first set of keystrokes places your system in Command Mode. As long

as you are operating in Command Mode, whatever you type will be

interpreted as channel switch commands until the Enter or the Escape key

is pressed to terminate Command Mode. None of the keystrokes entered

will be forwarded to the attached computer until you exit Command Mode.

Next, enter the address

(Addr)

for the channel you wish to select.

Press Enter to accept the new channel. The following command line

shows the proper format used to switch your active channel via keyboard.

Below is a sample of a keyboard switching session, with an accompanying

explanation for each step.

Key Sequence Action

1.<CM>E<Enter> Selects Channel E on the base unit as the active channel.

2.<CM>CF<Enter> Selects the AutoView attached to channel C on the base

unit, then selects channel F on the cascaded unit.

3.<CM>G<Enter> Selects Channel G on the base unit as the active channel.

4.<CM>BA<ESC> Exit Command Mode. The instruction is not executed. Channel

G is still the active channel.

Key Sequence Action
