Front Panel operation
You may switch to a different computer by pressing the
front panel push-button directly or by issuing hot-key
commands. The front-panel red indicator changes to
reflect the computer port selected. The indicator flashes
while in either Auto Scan or Manual Scan mode.
Hot-key commands
Hot-key command is a short keyboard sequence to
select a computer, to activate computer scan, etc.
NovaView interprets keystrokes for hot-keys all the time.
A hot-key sequence starts with two left
Ctrl
keystrokes
followed by one or two more keystrokes. A built-in
buzzer generates a high-pitch beep for correct hot-key
command; otherwise, one low-pitch beep for error and
the bad key sequence will not be forwarded to the
selected computer.
