Pausing Auto Scan:
While you are in Auto Scan Mode, you can pause the scanning in order to keep
the focus on a particular computer by pressing P. During the time that Auto
Scanning is paused, the S in front of the Port ID blinks On and Off.
Pausing when you want to keep the focus on a particular computer is more
convenient than Exiting Auto Scan Mode because when you Resume scanning,
you start from where you left off. If, on the other hand, you were to exit and
restart Auto Scan Mode, the scanning would start from the very first computer
on the installation. To resume Auto Scanning, press any key except Esc or the
Spacebar. Scanning continues from where it left off.
Exiting Auto Scan:
While Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard functions are suspended.
You must exit Auto Scan Mode in order to regain normal control of the
keyboard. To exit Auto Scan Mode press Esc or the Spacebar. Auto Scanning
stops when you exit Auto Scan Mode.
Skip Mode:
Skip Mode allows you to switch ports in order to monitor the computers
manually. You can dwell on a particular port for as long or as little as you like -
as opposed to Auto Scanning, which automatically switches after a fixed
interval. The Skip Mode hotkeys are the four Arrow keys. Their operation is
explained in the table below:
←
Skips from the current port to the first accessible port previous
to it. (See Scan Select, p. 48, for information regarding
accessible ports.)
→
Skips from the current port to the first accessible port that
comes after it.
↑
Skips from the current port to the very first accessible port on
the installation.
↓
Skips from the current port to the very last accessible port on
the installation.
