computer that is turned off, the monitor screen appears blank and the
mouse and keyboard input have no effect. Scanning moves to the next
port after the assigned scan duration time.
• The letter S appears to the left of the Port ID display, indicating that the
port is being accessed under Auto Scan Mode.
