This item determines the time, in seconds, that the ServSwitch Ultra will pause at
each of the computers when scanning. The factory-default setting is 5 seconds. To
change the scan time, press [Enter] while “Scan time” is highlighted. An “Input
new value” box appears. Use the shared keyboard’s number keys to input a new
value from 1 to 999 seconds and hit [Enter]. (You can also set this value to zero to
disable scanning completely.) The input box disappears and the new setting
appears in the “Scan time” field.

This item turns scanning on or off. (Factory default is off.) To change the scan
mode, press [Enter] while “Scan mode” is highlighted. An off/on input box
appears. Use the arrow keys to select “on” or “off” and hit [Enter]. The input box
disappears and the new setting appears in the “Scan mode” field.

This item determines whether the ServSwitch Ultra operates normally when it is
powered up or begins scanning immediately. To change the power-on scan setting,
press [Enter] while “Power on scan” is highlighted. An off/on input box appears.
Use the arrow keys to select “On” (Serv unit defaults to scan mode at power-up) or
“Off” (unit operates normally at power-up) and hit [Enter]. The input box
disappears and the new setting appears in the “Power on scan” field. (You must
save this change, as described in Section 5.1.3, for it to be effective. The factory-
default value for this option is “off.”)

This item determines how quickly repeated keystrokes are sent to the attached
CPUs when a key is held down on a shared IBM PC compatible keyboard. The
factory-default setting is 20 characters per second. To change the typematic rate,
press [Enter] while “Typematic rate” is highlighted. An “Input new value” box
appears. Use the shared keyboard’s number keys to input a new “rate value” from 0
to 31 and hit [Enter]. (This rate value corresponds to a certain number of
keystrokes per second, as shown in Table 3-1 on the next page.) The input box
disappears and the new setting appears in the “Typematic rate” field.
Apple and Sun keyboards do not support the typematic function, so the
ServSwitch Ultra ignores this setting if you have an Apple or Sun compatible
keyboard attached.
