CHAPTER 5: Operation
release “2,” press and release “3,” and finally release the hotkeys. This causes the
master Switch, unit “A,” to switch to its port 2, to which the subsidiary Switch is
attached, and send the subsidiary Switch the command to switch to port 3, to which
your desired computer is attached. (If there were any 12- or 16-port ServSwitch
Duos in the system, you would have to use two digits to designate each port,
inserting a leading zero when necessary.)
Two more examples, assuming that the hotkeys are the default combination
of [Ctrl] + [Alt]:
• To switch to channel 5 of an 8-port Switch attached to channel 1 of your 4-port master
Switch:
Press and hold [Ctrl] + [Alt], press and release [1], press and release [5],
release [Ctrl] + [Alt].
• To switch to channel 13 of a 16-port Duo attached to channel 7 of your 8-port master
Wizard Pro:
Press and hold [Ctrl] + [Alt], press and release [0], press and release [7],
press and release [1], press and release [3], release [Ctrl] + [Alt].
Please note that it is not possible to autoscan every channel in a cascaded system
with a single scan. Cascaded Switches must be scanned individually using their
front-panel pushbuttons or {Their Hotkeys} + [A].
