»CrossDisplay Switching«
With CrossDisplay Switching (CDS), you can use the mouse cursor to switch between
computers.
Moving the cursor to the edge of an active monitor placed next to another monitor,
the KVM switch switches to the computer of the next monitor.
When moving the cursor to the outer edges (left edge of Monitor 1 or right edge of
Monitor 3 ) CrossDisplay Switching does not take place.
If you hold a mouse key while moving the mouse, switching cannot be carried out.
However, you can still drag and drop objects.
ADVICE: If you use monitors of the same size and place them next to each other at
the console, you can use the function directly after enabling (see page 7).
EXAMPLE: When moving the cursor to the right edge of Monitor 2 , the KVM switch
switches to the module connected to Monitor 3 .
When moving the cursor to the left edge of Monitor 2 , the KVM switch switches to
the module connected to Monitor 1 .
IMPORTANT: In the default settings of the KVM switch, the »CrossDisplay Switch-
ing« feature is disabled.
