Chapter 5: Operation
1. Start command mode with the hotkey. For control, the “Shift” and “Scroll”
LEDs flash at the keyboard if command mode is activated.
2. Press the “<Left Shift>” key and hold it down. You can now enter the index
numbers of the various CPUs from the list of favorites with the keyboard and
immediately switch to the video signal of the respective CPU after entering the
index number.
3. Leave Scan Mode by pressing “<Left Shift> + <Esc>.”
NOTE: For optimal results, use identical resolutions. This contributes to a smooth
and delay-free scan mode function.
5.1.3฀Function฀Keys฀<F1>–<F12>
In Command Mode you can retrieve the Macros 1–12 with the function keys
<F1>–<F12> of the connected standard keyboard instead of the special macro
keyboard.
The deposited command sequence for the appropriate function key is executed
and Command Mode is left immediately.
NOTE: You don’t need to press the “Enter” key for confirmation of macros.
5.1.4฀Addressing฀of฀Main฀and฀Sub฀Matrices
The ServSwitch DKM FX can be cascaded in two steps. You can optionally send
the commands (including opening the OSD) to the main or the sub matrix.
Whenever command mode is activated, you can select by a <m> or a <s>, if all
the following commands should be handled in the main or in the sub matrix.
OSD Access
•฀OSD฀access฀to฀the฀main฀matrix:
<Left Shift>, <Left Shift>, <m> (optional), <o>
•฀OSD฀access฀to฀the฀sub฀matrix:
<Left Shift>, <Left Shift>, <s>, <o>
Example: Switching to the CPU Port 23 of the slave matrix.
1. Switching to the CPU port (e.g. 12) of the main matrix that has the
connection to the sub matrix:
<Left Shift>, <Left Shift>, <m> (optional), <1>, <2>, <Enter>
2. Switching to the CPU Port 23 of the slave matrix:
<Left Shift>, <Left Shift>, <s>, <2>, <3>, <Enter>
