The ServSwitch Wizard Pro begins autoscanning its CPU channels (that is, briefly

displaying each channel’s video in turn) when you type in the hotkey sequence

followed by the letter “A” (see Section 5.5). By default, the Switch only scans those

channels that have a powered-up computer connected to them. But if you need the

Switch to scan all of its channels, you can send it the [L][2] or [L][4] command.

(In these settings, when the Switch scans a channel that has no computer attached,

or a channel whose computer is off or just not outputting video, the shared

monitor will display a blank screen.) Also, if you want the Switch to start

autoscanning as soon as it powers up, instead of waiting for the “A” command,

you can send it the [L][3] or [L][4] command.

ServSwitch Wizard Pro only scans active ports during autoscanning (default)

L2 ServSwitch Wizard Pro scans every one of its ports during autoscanning

CAUTION!

Many modern monitors are fitted with automatic power-saver relays

and will automatically blank their displays after a short time if the

PC they’re communicating with becomes idle. If you are using such

a monitor, you should not use the Switch’s L2 or L4 setting unless

you can set the monitor’s power-saver timeout to an interval longer

than the Switch’s autoscan pause time (see below), because if the

monitor keeps going in and out of power-saver mode during

autoscanning, the constant switching ON and OFF of your

monitor’s relay will eventually damage your monitor.

only

L4 ServSwitch Wizard Pro powers on in autoscan mode and scans all ports

While autoscanning, the Switch will pause at each channel to display that channel’s

video signal for the duration of the currently selected autoscan-pause time:

T1 During autoscan, the Switch pauses at each channel for 2 seconds (default)

T2 5 seconds

T3 7 seconds

T4 10 seconds

T5 15 seconds

T6 20 seconds

T7 30 seconds

T8 60 seconds

To get out of autoscan mode, simply select a fixed channel using the on-screen

menu, the Switch’s front-panel pushbutton, the keyboard hotkeys, or the mouse.
