Chapter 3: Operations 15
Basic Operations
PCs may be powered-up one-at-a-time or all at once. The green LEDs by each
channel will light, indicating that the attached computer is powered on. After
power-up, a lit amber LED indicates the selected computer. Other PCs may
now be selected for operation.
Selecting a PC
There are two ways to select a PC. One way is via the Select push-button. This
selects the next computer in sequence. Another way is by entering a short sequence
of keystrokes on the keyboard. This is called keyboard, or hot-key, switching.
Press the Control key twice within one second to place your SwitchView in Com-
mand Mode. Your keyboard LEDs will flash to verify that you are operating
in Command Mode. Now, whatever you type will be interpreted as SwitchView
system commands until Enter is pressed to accept the command or Escape is
pressed to cancel.
In Command Mode, type the letter(s) for the PC you wish to select. Press Enter
to accept the new address (Addr). See below.
