7.2.2 Setting and Using the restricted Automatic Mode of Switching via Mouse
Setting the Manual Mode is only available in the modes 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Activating the restricted Automatic Mode
If you want to avoid unintentional switching via mouse while MSC is activated, proceed as follows:
1. Enter Hot Key, x, m, Enter.
The automatic switching of the MSC is restricted, and the mouse cannot cross the display borders.
2. To enable the mouse to cross the display borders, press Shift while moving the mouse over the
border of the display.
Deactivating the restricted Automatic Mode
Enter the Hot Key, x, a, Enter keyboard sequence.
The automatic mode of switching via mouse is enabled.
7.2.3 Deactivating and Reactivating unused or non-connected Ports
The port deactivation for unused or non
-connected ports via keyboard commands is intended in modes 1,
2, and 3. The port deactivation in mode
4 is still intended to be done via management software as mode 4
is totally optimized for a configuration via management software.
Unused or non-connected ports should be deactivated, if switching via mouse is in use.
The U-Switch remembers if a port is enabled or disabled in the following cases:
• power cycle
• switch between modes 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 in any combinations
The keyboard command to enable all ports works both when you are switched to an enabled port and when
you are switched to a disabled port.
To deactivate ports, proceed as follows:
1. Switch to the port to be deactivated (manual switching).
Enter the Hot Key, o, x, d, Enter to deactivate the port:
To reactivate one port, proceed as follows:
1. Switch to the port to be reactivated (manual switching).
2. Enter the Hot Key, o, x, e, Enter to reactivate the port.
To reactivate all ports, proceed as follows:
1. Switch to the port to be reactivated (manual switching).
2. Enter the Hot Key, o, x, c, Enter to reactivate all ports at the same time.
switching to a deactivated port, the respective port flashes periodically. After booting the U-Switch,
you will be switched by default to the first available port that is activated.
7.3 Switching via External Switching Solution (optional)
Optionally, you can connect an external switching solution (dry contact) with a GPIO interface to switch to
the respective source. Via GPIO interface each source connected to a CPU USB port can be switched.
