(KB) Keyboard 
The SCOUTutp operates with Windows, Linux, HP UX, Alpha UNIX SGI, DOS, Novell, MAC, USB or 
Open VMS. By default the keyboard mode is set to PS for Intel based computers.

Adding/changing a Hot Key (HKEY) 
If you cascade the SCOUTutp by connecting another SCOUTutp Switch to a computer port instead of 
a computer, you have to connect the utp cables to the new switch and you have to define the HOT 
KEYS for the new OSD. When you cascade these hotkeys must be different for the top and bottom 
layers.  
To add/change a hotkey: 
 
1. 
On the line to which the Switch is connected, press Tab  to jump to the HKEY column. 
2. 
Toggle between the options using the space bar.
